Please take a look at my blood report. My TSH level is high, but T3 and T4 are within the normal range. I have also been experiencing hair loss.

A high TSH with normal T3 and T4 indicates subclinical hypothyroidism. Hair fall is a common symptom. Lifestyle changes and, in some cases, low dose thyroxine may be recommended if TSH continues to rise or symptoms worsen. Monitor every 3 to 6 months.

Question

I have been getting frequent bumps on my skin with allergies on them. I was initially diagnosed with scabies and took treatment, but it never fully cured, and this problem has been continuing for a year. I also have thyroiditis and was not prescribed any medicine, but my recent TSH test result came back as 14. What could be the cause, and what should I do?

Hi, my thyroid test report shows a TSH value of 52.20, a T3 value of 107, and a T4 value of 6.3. Please suggest the appropriate medicine for this condition.

Question

My wife is taking Thyroxin 125. Her latest TSH test result is 12. I would like to consult an endocrinologist to discuss whether her Thyroxin dose needs to be increased.
