Hello Divya and welcome.

Both hypothyroidism and PCOS/PCOD require medications to be taken as long as the condition is present and in the case of PCOS/PCOD, until your menstrual cycle returns to normal.

So please do not discontinue taking the medications prescribed, and yes hyponoid is a good medication please take it without hesitation.

As for weight gain, this is a symptom of both hyppthyroidism and PCOS/PCOD and will neutralize as and when the conditions are well-controlled but of course with a good diet and exercise regimen.

Best wishes.
