Looking for low or suppressed TSH research papers
He reduced my Levo last year because of suppressed
TSH
. I want to be able to argue for it to be increased again so would need to take along some research that says it’s okay for
TSH
to be suppressed when on T3. Can anyone help with some links please. Thank you.

Results of TSH Modification Experiment
I inquired last week about what effect I could produce on
TSH
within three days. I appreciate the expertise and wisdom I received. I had just seen an endocrinologist who wanted to cut back my NDT because my
TSH
was 0.027. You advised me to stick to my rights as a human being.

Blood Test results - help please
My new GP has recently queried my
TSH
and says I have been over medicated for a long time - since 2014 my
TSH
has been around 0.05 and my T4 in the upper range around 18.

High TSH AND high T4 after thyroid removal
I couldn't find any medical resources that talk about "High
TSH
AND high T4". My endocrinologist is very busy and will reply to my questions one day (not soon enough). Has anyone in the world ever had high
TSH
combined with high T4?

newly diagnosed help with results
They wouldn’t prescribe anything higher as my
tsh
was suppressed < 0.001 I’ve just had my results back from my test this week and I’m not sure how to interpret and feel like they’re gonna try and take me off the levothyroxine.

Starting medication advice
Hello Long story short, i was diagnosed Hashimoto's 2020, told to wait for
TSH
to rise before medication. I've been trying to conceive for years so went back to the GP this year when i found out
TSH
should be below 2.5 for this, not 5.

Iodine supplements caused enormous spike in TSH levels in 2 months, anyone else had this?
My results came back and the
TSH
level had spiked to 14 mU/L, FT4 showed a slight improvement - 11.8. pmol/L, FT3 and T4 are in range. The spike in
TSH
over 2 months has terrified me, I am assuming its the iodine intake as that is the radical change to my diet.

What is your thoughts on this??
I didn’t know my primary doctor was testing
TSH
so I didn’t delay my meds (she tested no other thyroid levels) anyway my
TSH
levels was higher. My question is: wouldn’t my
TSH
be higher with me delaying my thyroid meds vs. not delaying my meds??? I hope this makes sense.

Considering Conception & Ideal Thyroid Levels
I asked about FT3 and FT4 levels but they were only interested in
TSH
which didn’t make sense given it only signals thyroid production and isn’t a thyroid hormone. Because my
TSH
was in range then all ok apparently. Does anyone have feedback on my current thyroid levels?
