A TSH of 5.907 with normal T3 (0.92) and T4 (9.90) fits subclinical hypothyroidism, which is common and very manageable. Since Thyrowel has been discontinued, Thyrowel Plus in the strength your doctor advised is a reasonable substitute, so please continue it for the advised 2 months. Take the tablet in the morning on an empty stomach with plain water, and keep tea, calcium or iron at least 45 minutes apart. Repeat TSH along with free T4 after 8 weeks, preferably from the same lab and before your morning dose. Alongside, regular brisk walking, adequate protein, iodised salt in moderation and 7-8 hours of sleep help the numbers settle. If you would like me to review your reports and fine-tune the dose, you may book a consultation with me here on Practo.
Next Steps
Continue the prescribed tablet daily on an empty stomach and repeat TSH with free T4 after 8 weeks, then share the reports for a dose review.

Yes your doctor is right. You need supplements. Follow as he advised. Medication with life style modification is best option for you at present. Medications act like a bridge for till your thyroid function normalises  with your lifestyle. After 2 months you can decide whether to continue thyrowel or not
