lybrate-user ji, thanks for the query. Have seen the details mentioned. Madam with tsh at 6 mu/l, it is considered as sub-clinical hypothyroidism. Usually no treatment is advised in this situation unless patient has presence of troublesome symptoms of hypothyroidism. When tsh goes above 10 mu/l hypothyroidism is clinically diagnosed and treated. Secondly with 25 mcg of levothyroxine every day you are now saying t4 is high. There is no mention of actual tsh and t4 as well as t3 values. Unless specific values are given there is no way to give any comment or advise. Another aspect to be understood is that even if t4 is high that too affects menstrual cycles adversely. So please come back with specific details like current t3, t4 & tsh values, weight, height and symptoms that you may be having. Then I will be able to guide specifically. If you have any questions please do come back. Thanks.
