Hi.
for a lady with hysterectomy done the TSH value of 7.56 is not a problem at all. But if you are symptomatic and suffering from any of the symptoms mimicking hypothyroidism than increase in the dose is required. For this you need to see a General physician or Endocrinologist. Get back for any further query.
