My wife is taking Thyroxin 125. Her latest TSH test result is 12. I would like to consult an endocrinologist to discuss whether her Thyroxin dose needs to be increased.

I have thyroid. I started taking 50 mcg tablet, then later increased to 75 mcg and now it is 100 mcg. Please advise as I am putting on more weight. The values in my report seem to fall within the proper range. Please advise and refer me to an endocrinologist?
