I take 50 mcg/day thyroxine sodium tablets. My recent test report shows T3 1.06 ng/ml (normal range 0.6 to 1.81), T4 9.90 microgram/dL (normal range 3.2 to 12.6), and TSH 8.01 microIU/mL (normal range 0.35 to 5.5). The test was done according to CLIA. Should there be any change in the dose of thyroxine?

My thyroid level is 6.412, which is higher than the normal range. Is it very critical? My last period was on 24th December, and I did not have periods in January. Is the thyroid level very critical? Can someone suggest medicines for this? I consulted a doctor, and he prescribed Thyronorm 50 mg. Is it fine to take? Below is my report. Can someone check and tell me about the criticality?

I recently had a thyroid test and would like to know if the results are normal. I think my T3 might be slightly low. Could you please review my report and let me know? I would be thankful.
