I'm a bit worried because I had my routine check-up recently and gave my blood sample on the first day of my periods. Could that timing affect the results of my thyroid tests? I don't have any thyroid history, but my TSH ultrasensitive result came back at 0.008. What does this mean, and should I be concerned?

I'm a 45-year-old guy with a pretty sedentary lifestyle since I have a desk job, and I'm dealing with hypothyroidism. My TSH is at 14, T3 is 0.8, and T4 is 5.9. I've been taking Thyronorm 25mg but not very consistently. I dont have a lot of physical symptoms, but I do feel lethargic and just can't seem to get motivated to exercise. Should I think about switching brands or adjusting the dosage? Also, is there a particular time of day that's better for taking this medication? And how often should I be getting my TSH levels checked?

go for thyroid test
