HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to history given here I could say that the THS level is the control the thyroid function and this is nothing to take with any other function of body so this is out of question that it goes on variation in menses, this is not true, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
