TSH 77 indicates severe hypothyroidism. Start thyroxine as per doctor advice usually 50 to 100 mcg per day and adjust based on follow ups.

I recently had a general checkup. I have noticed that I have been gaining weight over the past few weeks. Could you please review my results and share your advice?

My father is 76 years old and has hypothyroidism. He has been taking Thyronorm 25 mcg daily for more than a year. His recent blood test results are: T3: 90.55 ng/dL (normal range for above 50 yrs: 40 to 181 ng/dL) T4: 4.7 microgram/dL (normal range for above 60 yrs: 5 to 10.7 microgram/dL) TSH: 20.9 microIU/mL (normal range for 55 to 87 yrs: 0.5 to 8.9 microIU/mL) Should his dose be changed or kept the same? If it needs adjustment, what should the new dose be?
