Possibilities: 1. Thyroids are "normal" but not "optimal" 2 Thyroid receptor sensitivity has changed 3. You may be having Thyroid antibodies 4 Other metabolic paraneters have changed requiring Tbyroid dose adjustment. 5. Stress hormones may havae increased. 6. You may have developed Insulin resistance or preexisting resistance may have worsened. 7. Inflammatory markers have worsened Management of hypothyroidism needs a dynamic protocol. Depending on the case I would clinically review every 3 to 6 months.
