Hello dear,
I understand your concern.

In my opinion the thyroid dose need to be decreased.

As the TSH is decreased below the lower range the thyroid dose needs to be adjusted.

Kindly consult your doctor.

It can be taken upto 50mcg.

After changing the dose the thyroid profile needs to be done after 6 weeks to know if the TSH has come to normal.

Nothing to worry.Relax.

Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
