I want to know if I need to seriously consult an endocrinologist as I have low TSH level of 0.17. I am also attaching a screenshot of my blood report. Please suggest what to do next? Thanks in advance.

Yes, a low TSH suggests possible hyperthyroidism. Consultation with an endocrinologist is advisable for further evaluation and treatment.

Question

I had consulted a skin specialist for pimples on my face. She suggested I go for a blood check and a scan. My report shows TSH level 5.73 and ASM level 5.81. What should I do to reduce my TSH level.

Hi Dr, recently I have seen high TPO antibody in my report but my TSH is normal. Please note that I have been taking Thyronorm 112.5 for the last 8 to 9 years. Is there anything to worry about. Please review my report and advise? Thank you.

Question

My wife is currently taking Thyronorm 75 mcg. Before conceiving, her TSH level was 3. Now, at 5 weeks pregnant, her latest TSH level is 4.73. The reference range for TSH in the first trimester is below 4.5. Could you please advise if this level is a concern and if any changes to her medication or treatment are needed?
