Hi beta. I can understand your concern. It's a condition called hypothyroidism. So thyroid hormone has to be given in the form of tablets. So that needs to be started. As per your weight and other factors, the strength can be determined. Consult a endocrinologist in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain
