Brief Answer:
Recent thyroid status?

Detailed Answer:
Dear Mr. XXXXXXX hi! sorry to say but as your wife has stopped thyroxine , we must know her thyroid balance as of now . headache could have multiple reasons, but her thyroid was doing good with 50 mcg of thyrox. metformin she has taken only for 10 days, it will take time to bring the LH/FSH balance, meanwhile stopping thyroxine would have again disturbed the balance. hormonal issues are delicately balanced and are intricately connected. for now you can tell me the recent TSH & FT4 , then we will decide what has to be done. regards!
