The key to unlocking your weight loss is first stabilizing your thyroid. A TSH of 12 mIU/L means your current dose of Thyronorm (levothyroxine) needs adjustment. When your thyroid is underactive, your metabolism slows down significantly, making weight loss incredibly difficult despite your best efforts. Additionally, daily high-intensity exercise can sometimes increase stress hormones, which can worsen PCOD. Please consult your doctor to optimize your thyroid medication. Once your thyroid levels are in the target range, managing your PCOD and weight will become much easier.
