Does TSH Level Of 37.41 Cause Missed Periods?
I am a 24 years old female, 170 lbs.. I have had hashimotos for 12 years.. I recently have not been taking my medication regularly and this month I have felt very nauseous and have not gotten my menstrual period.. I went to my OBGYN and I am definitely not pregnant... I had bloodwork and my current TSH levels are 37.41.. could that be the reason for my missed period??

Thanks for asking. I understand your concern.
You have raised tsh level.. which indicates hypothyroidism. Irregualr oeriods ia a common feature of hypothyroudism.& that is the reason fot your missed periods.
You should consult an endocrinologist with your previous reports for necessary investigations followed by specific treatment.
