I've been on Thyronorm 25 mcg for the past two years, but I recently had a couple of lab tests. The first one was 20 days ago, and I hadn't taken my morning dose thenit showed a level of 4.8. Yesterday, I took the test after having my morning dose, and the level was 2.6. Do you think I should consider reducing my dosage?

Based on the lab results, it appears that your thyroid levels have improved after taking your morning dose. The lower value (2.6) suggests that the current dosage may be appropriate. However, I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to determine if a dosage adjustment is necessary, as they can assess your overall health and treatment response more accurately.

View allI'm wondering if it's safe to take thyronorm 50 mcg alongside folvite 5 mg, since we're planning to have a baby. My TSH was 5.7 but has come down to 4.97 after taking thyronorm and some homeopathy treatments. I'm really curious if this TSH level is okay for conceiving?
Taking Thyronorm 50 mcg (levothyroxine) with Folvite 5mg (folic acid) is generally safe, especially when planning for a baby. Folic acid is essential for fetal development during pregnancy. _Thyroid Hormone Levels and Conception_ Your TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) levels have improved from 5.7 to 4.97 with Thyronorm 50 mcg and homeopathy treatment. A TSH level of 4.97 is still slightly elevated, but it's within the acceptable range for conception. _American Thyroid Association (ATA) Guidelines_ The ATA recommends the following TSH levels for women trying to conceive: 1. *TSH < 2.5*: Ideal for conception 2. *TSH 2.5-4.0*: Acceptable for conception, but may require closer monitoring 3. *TSH > 4.0*: May require adjustment of thyroid medication before conception _In Your Case_ With a TSH level of 4.97, you may want to discuss the following with your doctor: 1. *Adjusting Thyronorm dosage*: To aim for a TSH level < 2.5 2. *Closer monitoring*: Regular TSH checks to ensure your levels remain within the acceptable range 3. *Folic acid supplementation*: Continue taking Folvite 5mg to support fetal development during pregnancy

I'm a bit worried because my T3 and T4 levels are normal, but my TSH is really high at 98 and my AntiTPO is 1440. I'm planning to see a doctor soon, but I'm curious to know if there's a way to reverse this autoimmune issue without having to take thyroxine if that's what the doctor suggests. Is there a different approach I might consider?
That is not possible ideally but can control the disease progress ,follow your doctors advice
