Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is under active and does not produce sufficient amounts of thyroid hormones required in the body. The most cause of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto?s thyroiditis. Hashimoto?s thyroiditis is an auto immune disorder in which the antibodies are produced by the immune system against its own tissue, which in turn attacks the thyroid gland resulting in hypothyroidism.Severe Iodine defficiency can also lead to hypothyroidism .

Thanks for the query. When one is on adequate dose of Levothyroxine TSH is maintained around 3 to 4 mU/l. At that level all the symptoms are in check. However, with TSH at 9.18 mU/l, there is a need for increasing the dosage to 112.5 mcg, then check again after 6 weeks to see if desired level (3 to 4 mU/L) is reached. Another important aspect with a BMI of 35.51 you are in grade 2 obesity. Your ideal body weight should be 57 kgs, which means there is an excess of 31 kgs. This needs to be reduced. So strict TSH control is a must. Thanks.
