Hi,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic,

After going through all the details you have provided, you have been diagnosed Hypothyroidism,Vitamin D3 deficiency.

At your age 42 there may be calcium deficiency as you are deficient in vitamin D3 which is necessary for absorption and deposition of calcium in bones.

In fact if you are hypothyroid then correction of thyroid level makes menstrual cycles regular.

There are no major side effects of these drugs as they are vitamin and Thyroid supplementation.

You should take them as directed by your Physician.Please take your medicines regularly.

Wish you good Health.

Take care.
Good Luck.
Dr.Akhilesh Dubey M.D.
