Is My Treatment Correct And Are There Any Side Effects For Thyronorm?
Hi , I tuk my blood test and found that my TSH is 17.69 and FT4 is 6.5. I consulted a doctor and she dint say much about it. I read articles that thyroid causes infertility. Im taking thyronorm (25mcg). May I know if I need to do some more test or this medicine is enough and also the side effects of thyronorm

Hello,
I can understand your concern.
The results you reported are suggestive for under active thyroid or hypothyroidism.
In most of the cases it has an autoimmune origin and is confirmed by checking antiTPO antibodies.
It is a chronic disease and should be followed up regularly to be sure that you are taking the right dose.
Before trying to conceive you should check the TSH level. It should be within the normal ranges in order to have a healthy baby.
For a personalised comprehensive evaluation, treatment recommendations, or individual therapy, ask me at HealthCareMagic at this private link: HCM Dr. Guni
