Hello, Thanks for the query. When one is on adequate dose of Levothyroxine, TSH is maintained around 3 to 4 mU/L At that level all the symptoms are in check. The current level mentioned 8.25 mU/L is high, suggesting there is a need for increasing the dosage. Please let me know when present dose was prescribed what was the TSH level? Then I will be able to give proper suggestion. Thanks.
