okay so im 21yo (female) few years ago i did blood test and TSH was lowk low but it wasn't that bad so my parents said "dont take meds", cause once the medicine starts there will be tag on you i mean yk typical thinking that person has illness type of stuff, but its not like they didn't care. my mum tried gave a lot of home made medicine or making me eat healthy food, but i was careless i didn't pay much attention but now i discover that ive tremors and im losing a lot of hair which is scaring the shi out of me like what if i go bald or what if things get worse. i told my mum about the hair at first she didn't say much but now its so noticeable and she blaming me that I didn't take care myself (which is true) i told her i will take test again but shes still saying if you wanna do a blood test, first take a proper diet for month and eat whatever i say then do the test. im really trying to take care of myself but idk why i cant eat no matter how much I try, its not easy at all. I try to do it but ending up going back to as i was every single time. so what should I do? idk where to start like, do ive do the test first or proper diet for more protein and vitamins

hey there . sorry to hear about that. i cant give you medical advice however parents can be like that at times. Natural remedies that do work exist it's just that there's not enough scientific evidence that supports them. We do however have research on tsh supplements and side effects and i think it's best you visit a medical professional by yourself and put the matter into your own hands. it's your healthlove. i dont know whether you can afford that and how expensive healthcare is in the part of the world you are but i believe you can make a plan. youre above the legal age and you can make your own decisions. stay strong and go get that test and treatment!!!
