I have a 5.7 thyroid level. The maximum is 5.6. Do I have a thyroid problem? What should I do now and what precautions should be taken?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A TSH of 5.7 (slightly above 5.6) suggests mild (subclinical) hypothyroidism. If you have no symptoms, your doctor may advise observation and lifestyle changes. Eat a balanced diet, manage stress, get good sleep, and avoid skipping meals. If you have hair fall, weight gain, or tiredness, consult your doctor for possible medication. You can book a Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4) repeat after 6 to 8 weeks to monitor levels.

Please read my report. Now I am currently 32 weeks pregnant. Upto the 2nd trimester thyroid reports were normal. I am using Tyronorm 50 mg. T4 is slightly above. Is there any problem? Please suggest.

My TSH (thyroid) test report shows 19.5. What medication should I take, and what precautions should I follow? I have a 5 month old baby.
