There is nothing wrong in it and its normal.
In my practise i definitely rule out Hypothyroidism as the causeby doing Serum T3,T4 and TSH levels. If its normal then there is no cause for concern.
In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Wishing you happy and healthy life
