Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. However, few important things are not given like: 1)current tsh, t3 & t4 levels. 2) lh, fsh & testosterone levels (if not checked, please get them done). 3) lipid profile & 4) an ultrasound examination of ovaries. These will help in identifying if there is pcod or not.

Hello, Thanks for the query.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. When one is on adequate dosage of levothyroxine, tsh is usually maintained around 3 to 4 mu/l at which level most of the symptoms of hypothyroidism are in check. Since your tsh was high, dosage was increased. Now as the tsh has come down to lower limit of normal, it is necessary to reduce levothyroxine by 12.5 mcg. So you will have to shift to 87.6 (88 mcg) per day. Then after 6 weeks please do the test again to see if tsh has r...more

As tsh is low so chances of hyperthyroidism are there.
Either go to endocrinologist or discuss on line with me.

The role of the thyroid gland is to carry out numerous metabolic processes within the body. The brain regulates the functioning of the thyroid gland through a feedback mechanism.

The thyroid gland influences almost all the metabolic processes in the human body through the hormones it releases. The swelling or inflammation of this butterfly-shaped gland, when triggered by an immune response is known as Silent Thyroiditis. It can lead to hyperthyroidism i.e. the overproduction of hormones followed by hypothyroidism or insufficient hormone production.

The exact cause of this thyroid disorder is unknown but it is known to affect more women than men. Women who have j...more
