Brief Answer:
Hypothyroidism
Detailed Answer:
Good day,
Noted your concern. The report clearly shows that she has hypothyroidism. I cant understand why the medicine was stopped. Can you attach the old and new reports?
How much is her weight? What symptoms does she have? How are the periods?
I would also recommend to do a Free T4 and TSH test again ( Free T4, not total T4). Along with this, please do an ANti TPO ( anti thyroid peroxidase antibody) test as well. This will give us a good insight in to her condition.
