Brief Answer:
euthyroid status. nothing actually to be done.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX Hi! welcome to HCM. I m Dr. Minal, would be happy to solve ur queries.
As I can see all your reports are normal and within normal range. TSH is normal rather good. T4 is little high but then it is total T4. total T4 can be high due to high proteins, high TBG, it can be due to concomitant medicines, any other condition. so it is always suggested to go for freeT4, when ever in doubt. So please get FT4 done and if that is also out of range do let me know.
regards!

I'm doing exercise regularly and started taking Lean Muscle Protein supplement from past 1 month. Is this could be a reason?

Brief Answer:
it can be!

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX exercise will not affect but excess protein intake specially animal protein will.
so that is causing high total t4 .
so stay relaxed, stop excess protein intake, otherwise your thyroid balance is normal.
regards!
