Other illness: Can cause similar symptoms. A TSH and T4 are fairly good screening but lethargy, weight gain, irregular menses can be cause by other diagnosed or un-diagnosed conditions such as heart disease, depression, and diabetes. Don't try to blame everything on your thyroid. Work with your doctor to uncover and treat your condition.
