Hello,

Is she taking any medications? As of now the above mentioned treatment is fine.

But There are many reasons for Irregular periods like Pregnancy, PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease), thyroid problems et cetera. As you mentioned your wife have hypothyroid issues, it may also be a reason for irregular periods.

It is advisable to take T.Eltroxin medicine OD (every morning in empty stomach) and my suggestion is to do a Thyroid profile (Free T3, Free T4, TSH) and refer a physician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Indhu Priyadharshini
