Hi, I am 9 weeks pregnant. My recent report shows Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH ULTRA) at 4.69 microIU/ml. Is this a serious issue? Do I have thyroid problems? Please advise.

TSH of 4.69 is mildly high for pregnancy. Ideal first trimester TSH is under 2.5 to 3. Thyroid medication may be needed. Repeat Thyroid Profile every 4 to 6 weeks. Common and treatable during pregnancy.

Hello sir, I have been taking Thyrox 50 for the past three months. I have sent my latest report. Please review it and advise whether I should continue the medication or if it can be stopped.

I recently had a thyroid function test (T3, T4, and TSH) done, but I am not sure how to interpret the results. My report shows T3: 0.52 ng/mL, T4: 4.70 microgram/dL, and TSH: 2.36 microIU/mL. Could you please tell me if these results indicate a thyroid problem or if they are within the normal range?

I have been suffering from hypothyroidism for the last three years and infertility. I was taking levothyroxine 50 mcg daily, but recently I have been feeling low energy, gaining weight, experiencing hair thinning and hair fall, and my periods have become shorter with less bleeding than before. My gynecologist advised reducing the dose to 50 mcg, but my new report also shows a low TSH level. Please see my report. What should I do further? Is this something very problematic? Please advise.
