My tsh levels are low i'm taking eltroxin 100 mg is it good. I have to continue with same mg?
Tsh levels-0.120.

Question

Hello, thanks for the query. Ideally when one is on adequate dosage of levothyroxie (thyroxine tablets) tsh is maintained around 3 to 4 mu/l. At that level all the symptoms are invariably well controlled. However, your tsh is quite low, (less than the lower limit of 0,5 mu/l) but you have not mentioned the t4 levels, because if that level is with in limit then current dosage may be continued. But if t4 has gone up then there is a need to reduce the dosage. Whenever one talks about thyroid gland activity it is essential to know tsh & t4 levels. If you have any questions then please do come back thanks.
