What could cause high thyroid hormone levels despite taking medications?

Hello,

Thank you for choosing icliniq.com for your medical queries.

Your TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) level is mildly elevated. I would like to know about your day-to-day activities.

1. Are you experiencing tiredness and fatigue?

2. Did you experience any symptoms before getting diagnosed?

If yes, you may have to increase the dosage by a minute amount. Thyroid medication is only available in multiples of 12.5, so you will have to add an additional 12.5 micrograms to your existing dosage of 25 micrograms, making it a total of 37.5 micrograms. This dosage tablet is not available so you may have to take 2 tablets of 12.5 and 25 micrograms each.

After starting this tablet, you will need to recheck your TSH levels in three months. If they are in the normal range, then you will need to continue the same dosage of 37.5 micrograms daily. If the TSH levels are too low or high on repeat testing 3 months later, then we will need to adjust the dose again. Overall, your dosage depends on your clinical condition.

Kindly consult a specialist, talk with them, and take medicines with their consent.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.
