normal tsh levels by age - #18141
Doctor, I recently had a TSH test (thyroid-stimulating hormone) as part of a routine health check, and my results showed that my levels were slightly out of the normal range. I’m 35 years old, and I wanted to understand what the normal TSH levels by age are supposed to be. I’ve been feeling unusually tired lately and noticed my skin has become dry, and I’ve gained a little weight despite maintaining my regular diet. When I looked up TSH levels, I found that the range for healthy TSH can vary depending on age and other factors. I also read that high TSH levels may indicate hypothyroidism, while low TSH may suggest hyperthyroidism. From an Ayurvedic perspective, how does this relate to dosha imbalances? Could an imbalance in Vata, Pitta, or Kapha affect thyroid function? I also want to know what natural remedies Ayurveda suggests for balancing TSH levels. I’ve heard that Ashwagandha is good for thyroid health—would it help normalize TSH levels? Are there any foods or lifestyle changes that can support healthy thyroid function and prevent further hormonal imbalances? Additionally, should I be concerned about the long-term effects of having abnormal TSH levels, or is it something that can be easily managed with dietary and lifestyle adjustments? I would really appreciate your advice on normal TSH levels by age and how Ayurveda can help support optimal thyroid health naturally.
