Hello..... hypothyroidism is due to decreased thyroxin harmone. It s commonly associated with weight gain and irregular period..... Your TSH is under control, you shouldn't decrease dosage of levothyroxin to 25 Mcg suddenly.. TSH level may shoot up.. Gradual decrease is advised.. Consult general physician in nearest hospital
