You seem to be suffering from subclinical hypothyroidism. your thyroid is functioning suboptimally and you may need to take low dose of thyroid replacement tablets. You may also need to get anti TPO antibody test
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist or endocrinologist for appropriate dosage of medication
