Hi I am 25 years old, female. Periods extremely heavy, dry skin, hair loss, weight gain, feel like I'm going mad.
TSH 6.9 (0.2 - 4.2)
FT4 13.2 (12 - 22)
FT3 3.8 (3.1 - 6.8)
TPO antibody 673 (<34)
TG antibody 1200 (<115)
Ferritin 26 (30 - 400)
Folate 4.3 (4.6 - 18.7)
B12 261 (190 - 900)
Vitamin D 13.3 (50 - 200)
Thank you
Have you been diagnosed Hypothyroid and on Levothyroxine? If not what has your GP said about your results?
Your high antibodies confirm autoimmune thyroiditis aka Hashimoto's which is where antibodies attack the thyroid and gradually destroy it. You can help reduce antibodies by adopting a strict gluten free diet and supplementing with selenium L-selenomethionine 200mcg.

Your vitamins and minerals are dire, what has your GP said?
Not on any levothyroxine should I be?
You can learn to interpret your own blood results - by looking at 1. the result 2. the Range which are the numbers in the brackets. For example - TSH 6.9 (0.2 - 4.2) shows that your TSH thyroid blood result is 6.9 and it should be between 0.2 and 4.2. So all these results are either totally out of the desired range, or very near the bottom.
Sorry
Your antibodies are very high this is Hashimoto's, (also known by medics here in UK more commonly as autoimmune thyroid disease).
About 90% of all hypothyroidism in Uk is due to Hashimoto's
are you on Levothyroxine? Or not diagnosed/started yet?
Hashimoto's affects the gut and leads to low stomach acid and then low vitamin levels
Low vitamin levels affect Thyroid hormone working
Clearly your vitamin levels are terrible.
Please say what GP has prescribed for each low vitamin
If not been prescribed anything yet, make urgent appointment with any GP at practice for Monday
Typical low vitamin levels due to under medication and detailed advice on supplements

Look up your local CCG guidelines for vitamin D deficiency
Eg Oxfordshire

Poor gut function can lead leaky gut (literally holes in gut wall) this can cause food intolerances. Most common by far is gluten
According to Izabella Wentz the Thyroid Pharmacist approx 5% with Hashimoto's are coeliac, but over 80% find gluten free diet helps significantly. Either due to direct gluten intolerance (no test available) or due to leaky gut and gluten causing molecular mimicry (see Amy Myers link)
But don't be surprised that GP or endo never mention gut, gluten or low vitamins. Hashimoto's is very poorly understood
Changing to a strictly gluten free diet may help reduce symptoms, help gut heal and slowly lower TPO antibodies
Ask GP for coeliac blood test first

Not on Levothyroxine should I be?
Yes, what has your GP said?
You have very serious vitamin deficiencies as a result of your autoimmune thyroid disease.
What has GP prescribed for vitamin D, ferritin and folate deficiencies
Your ferritin, folate and especially vitamin D are extremely low.
B12 is not quite as low but you still need test for Pernicious Anaemia before starting folic acid supplements for low folate
Ask GP for coeliac test too
All the vitamins need supplementing, alongside starting on Levothyroxine
You need to learn as much much possible about Hashimoto's
Make an appointment to see your GP
Very heavy periods are a symptom of hypothyroidism and will make ferritin very low
