Sorry, but results without ranges are meaningless. Ranges vary from lab to lab so you need to give us those that were with your results. :)

A year ago your vitamin levels were extremely low

healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

You will need vitamin D, folate ferritin and B12 retested

Heavy periods are classic sign of being hypothyroid and also cause low ferritin levels

Has your doctor prescribed iron supplements?

Vitamin D was very low too

We always need ranges on test results, if possible please

Hi Fauzia

Sorry to hear that you are still having the heavy bleeding.

You may remember, I bled heavily for 7 days every 2 weeks for a long time till the Menopause was over. I'd finish a period - then the next one was would start just 7 or 8 days later.

I was not diagnosed with Hypothyroidism (& Hashimoto's ) for another 5 to 7 years. So I was left suffering.

Could you please add the ranges for these results?

Your TSH is much improved now.

Your T4 & T3 look low - but I think the normal ranges for these tests in your country are different? So it's important to have the ranges, AND full information.

What dose of Levothyroxine are you on now? Did you start on the 100 mcg dose 2 months ago as your TSH has improved since then.

Was your blood test done early morning and before you took Levothyroxine or any food?

What other medication and supplements are you taking now? Could you please give a list?

Did you have a Vitamin D injection? What Vitamin D tablets are you taking now?

God Bless x

Edit:

ps What are very worried about?

I've just looked back to your post from 2 months ago.

When do you take your iron tablets?

Did you ask your doctor to refer you to a Gynaecologist?

Did you have a Pelvic Ultrasound scan and a Transvaginal Ultrasound scan to rule out a fibroid?
