A member asked:
Can hypothyroid (tsh = 13.6 & ft4 = 1.1) be the cause of my irregular periods (starts ~3-4 days early most months). also on bc pills. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes. : Many women with hypothyroidism will have an irregular cycle. In fact, most women with irregular cycles are screened for hypothyroidism as a potential cause. There could be other causes for an it regular cycle but I would get the hyperthyroidism treated first and see how it does. Hope this helps.
