Hello, Thanks for the query. Madam I have seen the details mentioned. TSH 6.25 mU/L is at best considered as sub-clinical hypothyroidism and at that level no treatment is given, unless the person has troublesome symptoms of hypothyroidism. So please let me know what are the symptoms that you have? Also mentione your weight, height and dietary pattern and extent of daily physical activity. Then I will be able to comment. Thanks.
