I have hypothyroidism. When I was tested 2 months ago my tsh was 0.03 so my doctor changed my medication from thyronorm 50 mcg to thyronorm 37.5 mcg. I used the thyronorm 37.5 mcg for 2 months now and when tested again the tsh is 6.9.What should I do now?

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is under active and does not produce sufficient amounts of thyroid hormones required in the body. The most cause of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto?s thyroiditis. Hashimoto?s thyroiditis is an auto immune disorder in which the antibodies are produced by the immune system against its own tissue, which in turn attacks the thyroid gland resulting in hypothyroidism.Severe Iodine defficiency can also lead to hypothyroidism .

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Usually when one is on adequate dosage of levothyroxine, TSH is maintained around 3 to 4 mU/L, at that level all the symptoms are in check. Since it is 6.9 mU/L, you may have to revert to the earlier dose. Then check again after 6 weeks. Thanks.
