TSH of 6.9 is elevated, suggesting undertreated hypothyroidism. Dose adjustment is needed. Please repeat TSH, T3, T4 levels. Take the test to adjust your medication.

I have recently undergone a thyroid test. My TSH and T3 are within the normal range, and T4 is also normal but on the higher side. Is this a cause for concern? I am attaching the lab report for your reference.

Hello Doctor, My mother has a history of low blood sodium levels, which has previously caused sudden unconsciousness, and she also has a history of thyroid issues. Today, her blood test shows a TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) level of 4.59 mclU/mg. An earlier test report showed TSH as 9.9, but the unit was microIU/mL. Which unit is correct, and how should we interpret these results?

Previously my report was on June T3 113, T4 13.9 and TSH 3.76. Recently my report is on March T3 102, T4 10.7 and TSH 3.27. Presently I am taking Thyronorm 50 medicine daily once. Will I continue the same dose or should I lower it? Please suggest?
