Hello doctor, I had my full medical tests on 08 Aug. Everything was normal except for the TSH test, which was high at 9.56 mIU/L. I have attached my TSH test report for your reference. Could you please suggest what medications and precautions should be taken to bring it back to normal? I need to repeat my medical tests in 1 to 1.5 months, so I would like this issue to be addressed by then. Any suggestions, consultations, or prescriptions would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

A TSH of 9.56 indicates hypothyroidism. A low dose of thyroxine (e.g. 25 to 50 mcg/day) is usually started and adjusted. Recheck TSH in 6 weeks. Avoid excess soy and high-fiber food around medicine.

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.

My thyroid was removed at the age of 20 (seven years ago0 and my TSH is normal. In this situation, would there be any problem with pregnancy, and would there be any problems with the health of the child before or after delivery?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am four weeks pregnant. As per my blood test report, my thyroid level is 10.58. I have also undergone a gall bladder operation four years ago. Could you guide me on whether I can have a healthy baby with this high thyroid level at the initial stage? Also, please advise whether my thyroid level could have any impact on my child as he grows up.
