The GP told me i had sub clinical hypothyroidism. Then retested 3 months later and all is normal: Tsh 3.43, T4 13.4. But Thyroid

suboptimal results, pregnancy loss
I was about to order a
TPO
test - do you recommend? I figured that was the best/only way to determine if it was autoimmune drive? I don't just want to take medication if I don't have to - if I can do something to change it. Can I manage this naturally?

Results guidance please
Hello, Please could I ask for some advice on my recent blood test results? I’m on a journey to understanding the link between thyroid function and repeated miscarriages (I’ve put more details in my bio section). These were my results from December 2023 (from blue horizon). I spoke to a private endocrinologist

GP won't diagnose despite abnormal test results, what should I do next?
So I'm now wondering what on earth I should do as there is obviously something going on with my bloods (especially with the
TPO
antibodies). Should I ask to be referred to an endocrinologist, or get a second opinion? I've made another appointment, but this isn't until 30th August.

T3 level, potassium
GP agreed to test again last week, adding T3, T4 and
TPO
. These latest results are TSH 3.23, T4 15.5 (range 12-22), T3 flagged at 3.8 as range is 3.9 - 6.70 but declared normal, no action.
TPO
is 7 (should be less than 35). Last test done at 9am, previous one at 1pm.

Getting GP on board
Offered a repeat NHS thyroid test, with the
TPO
antibodies, and *if* elevated TSH again, she could refer on to Endo, but had no idea how long that would take. Basically only looks at the lab ranges and goes with the NICE guidelines.

High TPO but normal TSH?
I have a history of 'borderline' thyroid results and my most recent test shows my TSH to be ok at 2.94 but my
TPO
antibodies are 408 (normal range less than 35). The other antibody test was fine. Could my symptoms be anything to do with my thyroid or am I clutching at straws?

Thyroid antibodies
But disappointed to find Monitor My Health only offer testing for
TPO
. Not helpful for me as I've always been negative for
TPO
and positive for TGab. Medichecks do both but are much more expensive. So presumably it's more common in hypothyroidism to have
TPO
antibodies than TGab? Anyone know why?

Advice on lowering high-ish saliva cortisol levels
: 195 (<34) (my
TPO
stay in the same 100-200 range, but I lowered them from 600 before) Anti-TG: 60 (<115) (my anti-TG has been lowered from 550 before and stays in about the same range) Liver, kidney, FBC, CRP, folate, Vit D, B12, etc - all ideal and optimum ranges.
