Today I have done my TSH test and my report is TSH 3rd generation 1.33. So please tell me can I continue the medicine or not? Earlier I was taking 100 mg. So please suggest what I should do? Thank you in advance.

A TSH value of 1.33 is normal, meaning your thyroid dose is appropriate. Continue taking 100 mcg thyroxine daily as advised. Retest TSH every 3 to 6 months or sooner if symptoms appear. Do not change the dose without consulting your doctor.

Question

I recently underwent a blood check up recommended by a dermatologist for skin issues. My blood report states that my TSH is 11. What may be the cause?

Question

What is the normal range for T4 blood test?

My TSH is 16.1, but my T3 (1.31) and T4 (8.02) are within the normal range. Surprisingly, I am underweight at 56.5 kg with a height of 172 cm. The other symptoms of hypothyroidism also do not match the high TSH results, whereas symptoms of hyperthyroidism such as tachycardia, anxiety, and sleeplessness are seen. I am confused. What should be inferred here, please?
