Background: Subclinical Hypothyroidism is a condition where serum TSH is raised, and serum T3 & T4 concentrations are at the lower or normal end of the reference range. This may persist for many years, although there is a risk of progression to overt thyroid failure. SCH may be resolved spontaneously within 2 years, typically in patients with TSH values of 4 to 6 mIU/L with thyroxine or levothyroxine. The rate of progression to overt hypothyroidism (6.5 mIU/L to onwards) is estimated to be 33% to 55% over 10 to 20 years of follow-up with thyroxine or levothyroxine. Homoeopathic medication is improving the serum lipid profile of SCH with no side effect & it's less time consuming & side by side improved vitality/ Immunity of patients.
