My thyroid test on August 26 showed TSH 4.06, and I started taking Thyronorm 50 mcg for four months. I rechecked my thyroid today and the results are TSH: 5.14 FT3: 2.58 FT4: 1.13 Should I continue the same dose, or is an adjustment needed? My fasting blood sugar is 94 mg/dL. Please advise.

Your TSH has slightly increased from 4.06 to 5.14 despite taking Thyronorm 50 mcg, while your FT3 and FT4 are within normal range. This may suggest a need for dose adjustment, but it is not urgent if you have no symptoms. It is best to discuss with your doctor whether to continue the same dose or adjust it based on your symptoms and repeat thyroid levels after 6 to 8 weeks. Your fasting blood sugar of 94 is normal.
