Revision of Medication dosage
Hello. I have been taking thyroid medications for the past 7 years. Recently, I have taken my thyroid tests and my TSH level is at 5.68. I am currently taking Thyronorm 12.5 as the medication. Do I need to change the dosage? To add to this, I am facing infrequent digestion issues and my periods are light and last for 2 days only. Please suggest.

Continue the same.
Repeat thyroid profile after 3 months and have a follow up.
