My TSH went from 1.48 to 3.46 so my Synthroid was upped from 50 mcg to 75 mcg. I am going for another blood test to see what my levels are after 6 weeks of being on 75 mcg. However, my functional dr. prescribed 100 mg. of progesterone to help me with sleep issues (I'm 63). Does anyone know if Progesterone effects the TSH levels?

I don't think it does and this is an excerpt and link:-
Progesterone increases production of GABA, a neurotransmitter that helps sleep.
