Dear XXXXXXX hi welcome toHCM! I am dr. XXXXXXX
As you are hypothyroid, you will need thyroxine, for sure. but whether it is permanent, whether the dose is right for you? to answer these questions i would need your thyroid profile and your antibody profile.
1. TSH
2. FT4
3. TPO antibodies
4. TGA antibodies
5. Family history of thyroid dysfunction?
6. your body weight?
7. your symptoms , if any?
