Hi! Welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. We will try to help you in best way possible. First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, you would need to get a fresh Thyroid levels done alongwith hormonal profile and pituitary functions evaluation too. Periods abnormalities can be due to thyroid illness itself as well as with over treatment with thyroxine, and may need to have an endocrinologist review. The infertility may also be due to throid issue as well as due to pituitary gland issues, so detail hormonal profile is a must. Meanwhile continue thyroxine in current dose. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Regards
