Hello, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das

Look, your TSH is very high. It indicates hypothyroidism.

In this condition, it will be very difficult to conceive. For better result, you have to be treated for hypothyroidism.

So, take the thyroxine group of drug for hypothyroidism. It will help you to conceive.

Regards.
