Thyroid management

2021-07-22 03:00:40
My TSH levels are on the higher end of normal range, and I'm fairly overweight. TSH (19/07/21) = 4.66 TSH (25/05/21) = 6.06 I am exercising but my weight loss isn't as proportionate. Should I be taking medicines for thyroid? Is it true that once I start I'll have to take them lifelong?
