Dear friend, welcome to HCM !

I high TSH indicates a thyroid disorder-hypothyroidism.
What are her T3, T4 hormone levels? what other tests are done for thyroid?

The symptoms are typical of low thyroid status and will have to take thyronorm according to TSH levels.
thyroid hormones being essential for metabolism, low status gives rise to dullness, fatigue, indigestion,menstrual irregularity, sensitivity to cold, slow heart etc.


Can stop Veniz altogether.


Take care and please keep me informed of your progress.
Good Luck !
