Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signs of an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism)?

Unexplained weight gain, fatigue, cold intolerance, dry skin, hair thinning, constipation, and depressive mood are common signs of hypothyroidism.

How often should thyroid levels be tested when on medication?

When initiating or changing doses of thyroid medication, TSH is typically tested after 6 to 8 weeks. Once stabilized, testing every 6 to 12 months is sufficient.

Should thyroid medication be taken on an empty stomach?

Yes. Levothyroxine must be taken first thing in the morning with a full glass of water, at least 30 to 60 minutes before breakfast or caffeine, for optimal absorption.

Can a General Physician manage thyroid conditions in Kolkata?

Yes, General Physicians manage the vast majority of primary hypothyroidism and subclinical thyroid cases, referring to an endocrinologist for complex nodules or difficult cases.

Can thyroid disorders cause irregular menstrual cycles?

Yes, thyroid hormones directly interact with reproductive hormones, frequently causing irregular, heavy, or missed menstrual periods.
