You will need medications only if you have any symptoms of hypothyroidism, otherwise just repeat your thyroid test after 3- 6 months.
Symptoms of hypothyroidism for your reference are as follows-
Anxiety, feeling low , hair loss, fatigue, cold sensitivity, constipation, dry skin , puffy face , hoarseness, Muscle weakness and unexplained weight gain.
And for cholesterol make few changes to your diet( eat healthy / nutritious food, avoid fast/ fatty food) and physical activity ( atleast 40 min of brisk walk per day) and repeat the test after 3 months.
