Endocrinologist 's  Response
Hello and thank you for asking!
I have gone carefully through your concern.
First you need to check TSH level, as the weight loss you described may be due to an overdosage of levothyroxine.
Please check the TSh, describe the actual dose of levothyroxine you are taking and will be a pleasure to help you further.
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
