Lab report 22 Oct shows T3 is 1.99, T4 is 10.75, and TSH is 5.74. Can we proceed for pregnancy or do we need to cure thyroid first before pregnancy? Please prescribe medication. Is any other test necessary before pregnancy?

TSH is mildly elevated. Treat thyroid before conceiving. Hypothyroidism may affect fertility or pregnancy. Start treatment under doctor supervision.

Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...

Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test or Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test

I was diagnosed with diabetes in December. Both my parents have diabetes. My recent blood test report shows FBS 226 and PPBS 289. My thyroid report shows T3 98.76, T4 4.53, and TSH ultra sensitive 9.0. What should I do?

I have had a thyroid problem for the last 13 years and take Eltroxin, adjusting the dose according to my test results. I usually take 50 mg, but when my TSH level increased to 100, I increased the dose to 200 mg. Currently, my TSH is 0.025 and T4 is 33. Please advise what I should do.

Hello, my aunt recovered from viral fever last week. She is not under any medication now. However, for the last 2 to 3 days, she has developed severe headache and nausea. On checking with a local physician, she was advised to do TSH, T3, and T4 tests. Previously, she was under medication for high TSH but stopped the medication a few months ago thinking everything was normal and feeling fine. The fresh test today shows TSH 18.77, T3 117, and T4 9.4. The reports indicate a high TSH level. She is worried and needs help.
