Can the TSH report tell me why I am gaining weight?
Hypothyroidism, or a low level of thyroid hormones, slows down metabolism, which accumulates fat in a person's body. High levels of TSH in the TSH test diagnose hypothyroidism. Your doctor will find the correct cause of your weight gain.
What can have an effect on my TSH report?
Some medicines and supplements can have a bearing on the TSH level. Thyroid medication, too, will have an impact. That is why you must inform your doctor of any medicine that you are taking before getting tested.
What happens after the TSH test reports unnatural TSH levels?
Your doctor will prescribe the thyroid profile test to confirm the report of the TSH test before making a diagnosis. Once that is done, you will be prescribed medication, hormone therapy and a special diet to manage your thyroid disorder.
