Brief Answer:
It's Hypothyroidism

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Greetings from Dr.Divakara.P
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

Your blood reports suggests that your thyroid gland is less active and producing less Thyroid hormones. This condition is called Hypothyroidism.
But for a TSH value of 7 ( normal is 0.3 -5 ) treatment is not started unless patient has s symptoms related to Hypothyroidism.
Your loss of hair , feeling tired are symptoms of Hypothyroidism. I want you to start Tab Thyronorm every morning. I suggest you visit your physician and dosage of medication will be decided by your doctor.

Any clarification feel free to ask.
Pleasure to answer.

Regards.

Brief Answer:
Continue to exercise

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Yes you can continue to exercise , there is no restriction for exercise for Thyroid patients .

Infact I advise my patients with Hypothyroidism to exercise as because of Hypothyroidism patients will start gaining weight and their blood cholesterol level will also start going up . So exercise is the best way to control both .

There is not much of restriction in case of Hypothyroidism . Avoid Cabbage , Cauliflower and Spinach. Otherwise no other restrictions.

Any further clarifications feel free to ask .
Otherwise close the discussion and rate my answer.

Regards.
