Why since taking levothyroxine have my periods stopped?

Wrong dose?: You may not be on the correct dose. Make sure you're on brand name replacement and taking it properly, then have levels checked. You may be entering menopause or if not old enough, there are many non-thyroid possibilities for periods stopping -- one common one is pregnancy.
