I have been suffering from hypothyroidism for the last four years. I take Eltroxine 50 mcg every morning, but in my blood test report which came yesterday, TSH is 7.4. How can I keep my thyroid normal? I am a working female and got married last year.

Hi doctor, I have been diagnosed with a thyroid problem for the past two years. At present, I am taking 100 mg Thyronorm. Recently my blood report shows TSH 0.32, T3 0.92, and T4 11.50. What does this mean?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am on medication with Thyronorm 88 mg, and my recent blood report shows TSH level 14.02. Should I change my dose, and if yes, should I reduce or increase it?
