View allI'm a bit confused about my thyroid test results. My TSH is 9, but my T4 levels are normal. Is this considered clinical or subclinical hypothyroidism? Do I need to start taking levothyroxine? I'm really unsure about what to do next.

I've been really puzzled and a bit worried. I had an IUI on the 16th of March and got an HCG trigger shot of 10,000 units on the night of the 14th. But then, a few days later, I decided to take a home pregnancy test and got a negative result. I even tested multiple times and still got negatives. How could this be happening?
