hiii mam,

You are currently under treatment of PCOD for last 1.5yrs.
You have got your thyroid profile and your T4 & TSH level are ok.

If you dont take antithyroid drug or Thyroid Replacement Therapy,then increased T3 level is probably due to interaction with KRIMSON-35.

**Drugs that can increase T3 measurements include:

1)Birth control pills
2)Clofibrate
3)Estrogens
4)Methadone

**KRIMSON-35=combination of cyproterone acetate (Anti androgenic) and ethinyl ostradiol tablets (Estrogen)

So if your T3 test result 2.51 may be associated with following

# High levels of a protein that carries T3 in the blood (may occur in pregnancy, with use of birth control pills or estrogen, liver disease, or as part of an inherited condition)
# Hyperthyroidism
#T3 thyrotoxicosis (rare)

So if you get features of hyperthyroidism, then consult with your GP...otherwise dont worry.

All the best.
