I had consulted a skin specialist for pimples on my face. She suggested I go for a blood check and a scan. My report shows TSH level 5.73 and ASM level 5.81. What should I do to reduce my TSH level.

TSH is mildly elevated. For pregnancy planning, aim to bring TSH below 2.5. Your doctor may suggest a low dose of thyroid medicine. ASM is a liver enzyme; mildly raised value can occur with stress, diet, or minor liver inflammation.

My T3 is 0.98 and T4 is 6.56, which I believe are in the normal range. My TSH is 8.012, which is high. What do you suggest? Do I have thyroid disease?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have thyroid and I have my latest test report. I want to consult a doctor so that I can take proper medicines.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My T3 and T4 levels are normal, but my TSH is high. I have attached my report for your reference. I was previously taking Thyronorm 62.5 mcg, but I have stopped it recently. Should I continue taking it? Additionally, I would like to check my estrogen and progesterone levels.
