Hi,
The first thing you should do if you have menstrual irregularities with thyroid disorder is to normalise the thyroid function tests. Your TSH is still high. I suggest you to see a physician, who will increase the dose of Thyrofit to bring your TSH below 3 MIU/L. Your mensus will return to normal after that.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
