Dear Customer,

Evaluating the answer from the top of the page after reading it helps us improve the quality of answers and ensure that the best experts are available to help you.

What are the normal Tsh levels?

This test is for the thyroid gland and  the normal range of TSH levels is 0.4 to 4.0  If you're already being treated for a thyroid disorder, the normal range is 0.5 to 3.0  A value above the normal range usually indicates that the thyroid is underactive. This indicates hypothyroidism.

What are the symptoms of hypothyroidism ?

1.Fatigue.
2.Weakness.
3.Weight gain or increased difficulty losing weight.
4.Coarse, dry hair.
5.Dry, rough pale skin.
6.Hair loss.
7.Cold intolerance (you can't tolerate cold temperatures like those around you)
8.Muscle cramps and frequent muscle aches.

What do we recommend?

Your TSH level is high and this indicates that the thyroid gland is inactive and you might have hypothyroidism which can also be the cause of your period irregularity so we advise you to check with your endocrinologist to begin the thyroxine treatment and check with the gynecologist for your period delay to give you utavlan but dont worry as this is very common.
We wish you all the best ,
