TSH level >150

I have consulted a doctor yesterday, based on some random tests they have done tsh and it came as 157, doctor said it is hypothyroidism. What are the reasons behind hypothyroidism and how Can I reduce that to normal range. Normal Range is (0.5-5.5). Also doctor suggested me to take thyronum 100mcg. Can this be reduced to a normal value?
