lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query. When one is on treatment for hypothyroidism, it is essential to maintain TSH around 3 to 4 mU/L. Because at that level all the symptoms are in check. Your present TSH level is definitely much higher. Therefore, there is a need for increasing the dosage. It is necessary to know weight, height along with hormonal levels for calculating the dose. After taking the newer dose you should check TSH again after 6 weeks to see if desired level is attained. Thanks.
