Brief Answer:
Continue medicines

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

You need to continue the medicines for thyroid as prescribed by doctor till the control is achieved. Increase the dose till control is achieved.

Dont worry about flow. 3 days of flow is good enough.

You can continue tablets for acne as prescribed.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards
