Tsh Test Done, Losing Weight, Hair Fall, Had Replaced Harmone, Menstruating, Had Periods. Suggestion?

Hello, I m a 63 yr old female. Tested my tsh and it was 0.0008. Before this I have been loosing weight. Weighing 152 now at 135/136. My hair is falling out, been very tired. Have this nervous feeling inside my body and get kind of shakey. Been very irritable. I have been on replacement hormones for 12 years. I have tried all of them and types. They work for maybe up to 8 months or less and have been menustrating. Last month I had 3 periods within 6 wks. Thank you

Endocrinologist,  's  Response
Dear ma'm, Hi! There are more than one issues. 1. TSH 2. Hormone replacement therapy from last 12 years and been bleeding at 63 years is actually a pretty long time for Hormone replacement therapy.
3. see a gynecologist and request them to wean off HRT. Regards!
