Thyroid Fluctuations
Since last 10 months my thyroid has been fluctuating. I was diagnosed with thytoid in 2018. Tried to cure with Aayurvedic medicines.
Shifted to Allopathic in 2019. I've been taking Eltroxin 25mg everyday morning since September 2019.
My TSH records is as follows:
Aug 2019 - 13.57
Nov 2019 - 5.55
March2020 - 6.32
May2020 - 9.84
Minimal Exercise. In a profession to sit in front of books or computer full day. Late night sleeping routine.
Ok there are many reasons for fluctuations in thyroid report. First is compliance if u taking the tablets correctly in empty stomach. Second if the thyroid tablets have been stored properly like in cool and dry place. Next change in medicines brand can also fluctuate in thyroid levels. with all these points checked still thyroid fluctuations can be seen due to thyroditis as well.
