Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected. Now, I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. What kind of food is good for hypothyroidism?Doctor's answer:
Hypothyroidism is a common and frequently occurring disease in the field of endocrinology. Postpartum thyroiditis can easily lead to hypothyroidism, which is relatively easy to treat. It is recommended to take it orally, specifically sodium levothyroxine tablets. It is suggested to take one dose per day, starting with 12.5 micrograms. Increase the dose by 12.5 micrograms each week. Recheck thyroid function every month until his thyroid function exceeds the normal range, at which point no further dosage adjustment is needed.
