Hello sir/madam, I am 6 months postpartum now, But am experiencing the symptoms of thyroid from past one month like puffy face.. got blood check up and TSH was 160, I had consulted Dr she suggested me to take thyronorm 100 but my family Dr said it's a postpartum thyroid due to long mensus gap it comes but it gets normal within few weeks not to worry.. Shall I take start taking the tablet or should I wait? Will this affect my baby in future due to breastfeeding?

You are certainly hypothyroid and need to start levothyroxine immediately. It can be taken by lactating mothers.
