Thyroid problem
Hi
My Mom having thyroid problem since past 4-5 yrs, initially she was taking 100mg dose, then 75mg, 62.5mg and now 50mg. But doses remain vary based on TSH test
. When TSH test vary, doctor recommend to change mg (low or high,depending on test).
Futher my Mom losing weight. From 54kg to now 44kg in past 2years.Hair loss is increase also.
My question is can't thyroid be constant? And why still weight loss even taking medicine on timely basis. Further on time to time she face gastric problem too.. Please suggest.
Hii...your thyroid profile needs to checked..and weight loss can be due to thyroid issue or it can be due to other causes also which needs to be checked, you should consult an endocrinologist..can u plz elaborate on gastric issue so that I can guide you well.
