My cycles too are regulating since having my thyroid treated.
Unfortunately I live in Canada where the imbecilic doctors don't recogonize the American references ranges and I have had nothing but a struggle.
It took 5 years to get someone to do anything about my high TSH levels, and even then I moved across the country where doctors seem to even more uneducated and had to lie about being on Synthroid to get treatment. Only then did a doctor I was dealing with at the time feel the need to titrate and follow up with me. Unfortunately when we wouldn't abide to his unreasonable requests, we were dismissed as patients and my TSH sky rocketed. That was 2 years ago. Since then everytime I fiddle with my Synthroid dose to keep my TSH as close to 2 as possible, my cycles regulate(I never in my life ovulated on my own before Synthroid). On 3 seperate occasions last year I drove 4+ hours to the nearest area with endocrinologists, all of them stated that because my TSH was around 5.0 there was nothing they could do for me. Even though I have documented proof that my cycles correlate with my TSH levels.
How can the doctors here be some dumb! Grrrr! Sorry for the rant.
I'm just frustrated that I can see the connection with my cycles but my doctor can't.
