Hi,

Before restarting treatment for thyroid disease I would recommend to check the thyroid hormones (TSH, FT4 and FT3). Then the treatment will be decided according to the results.

Usually thyroid problems do not cause frequent urination, an urinary infection should be excluded.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind regards,
Dr. Mirjeta
