I'm a bit concerned right now. Over the past few months, my follicular scans showed my endometrium thickness was in good range, over 6mm or even 7.75mm. But this month, it dropped to just 4.8mm. My thyroid profile looks normal with TSH, T3, and T4 levels, according to my doctor. But my antithyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies are really high. My doctor said I don't need meds for that, but when I went to an infertility center, they gave me Thyronorm to take every morning on an empty stomach. I'm worried if this condition is affecting my fertility or chances of getting pregnant. Could the thyroxine sodium be making my endometrium thinner? Should I even take it? Also, I'm curious if taking Estrogen Estradiol Valerate from day 5 of my period and Progesterone Duphaston from the 15th day will help thicken my endometrium and improve my chances of getting pregnant. What do you think?

Elevated anti-thyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies may indicate autoimmune thyroiditis, potentially affecting fertility and pregnancy; taking Thyronorm (thyroxine sodium) as prescribed by the infertility center may help regulate your thyroid function and improve fertility, despite your normal TSH, T3, and T4 levels; the medication might also contribute to the temporary thinning of your endometrium; to promote endometrial growth, your doctor's recommendation of Estradiol Valerate from Day 5 and Duphaston from Day 15 of your cycle may be beneficial, but closely monitor your endometrial thickness and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

I've been dealing with hypothyroidism for about two years now, and my TSH level is currently 17. I'm really concerned and wondering how I can get it back to a normal range. I'm taking 100mg of Electrocin every day. Could you give me some advice on what else I might be able to do?

With a TSH level of 17, your hypothyroidism treatment needs adjustment. Here's a step-by-step plan: *Medication Adjustment* 1. *Consult your doctor*: Inform your doctor about your current TSH level and medication (100mg Electrocin). 2. *Dose increase*: Your doctor may increase your levothyroxine (T4) dosage to achieve normal TSH levels. *Lifestyle Changes* 1. *Diet*: Ensure adequate iodine intake through foods like seafood, dairy, and iodized salt. 2. *Selenium-rich foods*: Include selenium-rich foods like nuts, seeds, and fish to support thyroid function. 3. *Regular exercise*: Engage in moderate-intensity exercise, like brisk walking, to improve overall health. 4. *Stress management*: Practice stress-reducing techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises. *Monitoring and Follow-up* 1. *Regular TSH tests*: Schedule follow-up TSH tests every 6-8 weeks to monitor treatment progress. 2. *Adjust medication as needed*: Work with your doctor to adjust your medication dosage based on TSH test

I'm a bit worried about my thyroid situation. I've been on Electroxin, taking 25 mcg and 50 mcg on alternate days, along with some homeopathic treatment. Recently, my blood test came back with a TSH level of 8.3, but my T3 and T4 levels are normal at 89 ngdl and 7.6 mgdl. I've had thyroid issues for the past 6 years and, initially, I was on 100 mcg of Electroxin. Over the past year, as I began homeo treatments, my doctor gradually reduced the dosage to where it is now. Should I be concerned about the TSH level, and what steps should I take next?

No your Thyroid levels are not regulated don't switch in such manner that might lead to serious problems visit Endocrinologist for appropriate treatment.
