Hello,
Unfortunately there is no other way except of hormonal substituting therapy to correct the TSH level.
12.5 mUi/ml is considered relatively high and should not left untreated.
Anyway, after starting treatment the weight is expected to lower by 1-2 kg.
So diet and physical activity will be needed to get the ideal weight.
Hope the information is helpful,
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
