Asking for Self, Female, 25 years old, Lahore
After my 1st born son's vaccum delivery 10 months later, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. I was given 50mcg 5 days and 100 mcg 3 days levothyroxine by doc shahzad ul huq. After 3 months my thyroid was in normal range. Now after 6 months when tested its again out of range serum tsh. Please guide me what's wrong. PS. I don't leave medincine but at times I don't take it on fixed time or a very very few times I have forgotten it. Is this high value because of my negligence? Do I have autoimmune?
Tsh rises in response to low Free T4
So if u forget doses then TSH goes up....You need adjustment of thyroxine to meet target..compliance is also needed..Get TPO antibodies test to know nature of disease. For further info. I am available
Hi there. Anti thyroglobulin antibodies do tell us that disease has autoimmune nature which can lead to permanent hypothyroidism, however, anti-TPO antibodies would be more specific and helpful. Your current TSH is high. You need proper consultation to plan further regarding your levothyroxine dose.
Hi Good day please watch my YouTube video on hypothyroidism if you are interested to get more information about your disease. https://youtu.be/fQCytoNEIWE. Thanks
