I have been taking Thyronorm 12.5 mcg for two months. Due to severe tiredness and sleepy feeling, I repeated TSH and Free T4 tests. TSH is 8.02 (Ref 0.4 to 4.2) and Free T4 is 1.17 (Ref 0.89 to 1.76). Previously, Anti Tg Antibody was high and TPO was normal. I am having tingling in both palms and feet. Fasting blood sugar is 82. I am taking Concor 5 mg for hypertension. Do I require a dose revision or further consultation?

Your TSH is still high (8.02) despite taking Thyronorm 12.5 mcg, suggesting the dose may be too low. Free T4 is in normal range, but the continued tiredness, sleepiness, and tingling need attention. The tingling in hands and feet may be due to Vitamin B12 or nerve issues. With a history of high Anti Tg antibodies, you likely have autoimmune thyroiditis.

Hi, I did a thyroid test one month back and my TSH was 27.5. The doctor suggested taking 100 mcg tablet and repeating the TSH test after one month. I went for a retest after one month, and now my TSH is 0.6, which is normal. The doctor gave me 87.5 mcg tablet to continue for the next month. She told me that I can plan for a baby now. Should I continue the tablet even though my TSH is normal, and is it safe to plan for a baby now or should I wait for some more time?

My blood report shows T3 at 94, T4 at 8.3, and TSH at 8.92. Do I need medical attention? Should I consider any other tests?

My recent blood report shows my prolactin level is 45, and my doctor said this is causing my irregular periods. Currently, I have been prescribed tablets to regulate my periods for 3 months. Could you please advise what steps I should take to normalize my prolactin levels?
