Need some more information
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear.Thanks for giving me an opportunity to address your query.
According to me your TSH is borderline high.Since the reference values of various labs(Normal range is from 0.5 to 5 depending on the lab) are different I would like to know the TSH range mentioned in your report.
Could you please let me know the symptoms/complaints you have been having?Since how long?
Secondly I would also look at the levels of T3 and T4 (with reference ranges) which gives a holistic picture of the thyroid status and plan further management.
Hope this answers your query.
