Are you married? If you are planning for conception don’t change the dosage.
Repeat Thyroid profile after 1 month and consult me on Practo.
Now take Tab. Calcimax fort daily one after meal.
Tab. Thyronorm 100mcg on empty stomach early morning.

Yes TSH can reduce in 2 weeks. But for initial TSH 10 your dose of thyroid medicine of 100 is more. So u may need to reduce the dose. Kindly consult with ur reports

Check thyroid profile after 1 week, if TSH decreases below normal than can reduce the dose of thyroxine tablet.
