Hi sohini ! You have hyper thyroid which give anxiety, high B.P, sweating . Remember after menopause or uterus removing operation too , women feel hot flush, hairfall, increase hair in body. Now back to your topic ! I think it is time to stop medicine as it will further lower the TSH level Means again problem ! Just meet the physician with your medical history for drug change. Be healthy. Bye.
