I'm losing weight . have a thyroid problem .. do i have to take any test. cos i'm missing my period .. ?

Thyroid and wt loss: If you haven't had a TSH in awhile that would be the first test o would get. Patients with hypothyroidism maybe at higher risk for celiac dz which can cause weight loss and menstrual irregularities. There is a blood test that can look for certain antibodies found in patients with celiac dz.
