Dear patient,Given your TSH levels rose to 8.85 after stopping Thyronorm 12.5 mcg, it’s advisable to resume the medication to manage your subclinical hypothyroidism. I suggest taking Thyronorm 12.5 mcg daily in the morning on an empty stomach. Recheck your TSH levels after 6-8 weeks, and consult an endocrinologist for a personalized dose adjustment based on your symptoms and thyroid profile (e.g., free T3, free T4). Avoid self-adjusting the dose.Best regards,
Dr. Aditya

Hi. Abrupt stop was a bad idea. Consider its a hormone needed as vital for the body. You need only minimal dose of thyroxin. Subclinical hypothyroidism. So there is a way to solve it. You take this 12.5 mcg on alternate days morning @ empty stomach. This can help u

No dose like 12.5. It's just maintainse dose.
Tab thyroxine 75mcg one in empty stomach.
Shalcal 500 one at night as thyroxine depleting calcium n bone becomes weak.
