Its been 6 months since my delivery. My doc recommended thyronorm 12.5 mcg when I got my tsh done during my 1st trimester as the report comes out to b lil on higher side according to my doc. It was 4 then. After medicine, it comes down to 2.4. Still my doc recommended me to continue it for 6 months more. Now after 6 months of my delivery my TSH level is 3.59. Should I continue the same dose? Or should change it?

Heena ji, Thanks for the query. Post delivery many a times Thyroid function does return to normal, usually takes over 6 weeks or so. If TSH has not returned to normal or remained higher then it is necessary to continue the treatment with present dosage. If you have any questions please do come back. Thanks.
