Hi
High TSH in women usually needs medical attention and treatment with Tab Thyroxine. Dose depends on weight and plan for pregnancy, history of weight gain, hair fall etc
You also need yo check Anti TPO antibodies to know if medicine is needed long term

Check Anti TPO antibodies and meet a doctor to start proper dose

Avoid cabbage, soya, cauliflower and reduce rice, maida, potatoes
Yes you need to start medication
Especially if you are planing to get pregnant
If you are having symptoms then directly need to start treatment
You need consultation for medication as this medication can cause side effects in high doses
