Hi charitha...You hav hypothyroidism...Your TSH levels are not too high...but it's normal at the same time. due to hypothyroidism you may face problems like weight gain, hair loss etc.otger causes of weight gain is also important to rule out...Engage yourself in a physical activity daily. and check free t3.,4,TSH levels fasting sample once and then decide regarding discontinuing thyronorm.
