Hi,
As your hormonal profile suggests thyroid insufficiency, it should be treated. Progesterones are usually given as continuous therapy for not more than 20 days and as such, you should ask your doctor about the way to use FUH. Novelon will help your cycles to be regularized after a couple of courses; if not, you shall be further investigated. Maintenance of a healthy weight and a proper diet in addition to regular exercise help a lot. Hope you find this information useful. Wish you good health.
