Hypothyroidism

2016-05-14 11:30:43
Recently my thyroid profile test showed TSH level fifteen, while the T3 and T4 were normal. Two month back the reading was fourteen. I have no constipation. My periods come every 24 or 25 days from the beginning. My weight has increased around 3 kg in last 1 year after my marriage. What should I do?

Hello......Based on the TSH value you have mentioned in the report, I think you should know that your TSH value indicates hypothyroidism....The normal value ranges between 0.4 to 4.5 milliunits per liter....Generally high values are seen in infection of thyroid gland or hypothyroidism and low values in hyperthyroidism, toxic nodule..... It might be a reason your weight gain... So kindly consult consult a endocrinologist for further management...
