I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism three years back when i had menstrual irregulaities. i have been having thyroxine once a day daily orslim once a day along with glucophage 850mg thrice a day which this january got changed to twice a day. I have lost about 25 kilos in these 3 years and now i weigh 55 kg my age is 21 and i am unmarried. my periods didnt come for 3 months recently but when it started it hasnt stopped yet its day 16 of me bleading. after 5 days flow was minimal but then after 12 day flow has increased.  please tell me any medicine so my periods stop also i am tired of taking glucophage daily and orslim. Can i now stop taking glucophage and orslim? i exercise 5 times a week.

Your periods are unlikely related to thyroid, have a consultation with Gynae.
