Hi
you have a hypothyroid and your body is not producing thyroxine hormone which is important for your metabolism so you have to take tab eltroxinfor life time start with tab eltroxin 100 mcg before breakfast and do tsh after 1 month for titrating the dose.visit a endocrinologist for best results.
Thnx
Hi Shaily
Welcome to HCM
Read your prob, in case of hypothyroidism you should take medicine for long time , you should get thyroid test every 4 month adjust dose of medicine as per TSH value. you shoud take drug empty stomach in morning, avoid cabbage, fatty ,n spicy food. you should take protine n calcium riched diet. along with it you should start work out or morning walk ,it helps in relieving symptoms.
