Ingested thyroxine, which is itself probably of modest physiologic significance, is rapidly partially converted to triiodothyronine (t3), the active form of thyroid hormone. Both thyroxine and triiodothyronine levels in serum rise within 1-2 hours of ingestion. Agents that inhibit t4>t3 conversion provide one approach to treatment. In children and adolescents, the clinical course is often very mild. Patients in this age range may ingest a full flask of lt4 with 90-100 tablets (100 or 150 mcg/tab...more

If weight increase has occured recently then it could be a problem due to sluggish thyroid functioning. In that situation you may need to take Thyroxine. Then that will help in bringing down TSH <3 mU/L and help weight reduction. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
TSH 6.33 mU/L is considered as sub-clinical hypothyroidism. No treatment is advocated at this level. If a person has presence of uncontrolled symptoms even at that value, then L-thyroxine is prescribed.
Clinically hypothyroidism is diagnosed when TSH goes beyond 10 mU/L.
When one is put on Levothyroxine TSH does go down. Normal range is 0.5 to 5 mU/L. In short yes reduction is possible. Thanks.
