Blood test results - please comment...

Hi,

I’ve had the results of a recent blood test back today on 125mcg Levothyroxine:

TSH 0.005 (0.38-5.00)

Free T4 16.4 (7.00-16.00)

Free T3 5.2 (3.8-6.00)

Do I need an increase/decrease?

The only symptoms I have are oily skin and hairloss. Thank you!

I would say not. Be inclined to keep things as they are

Do you think the above results could be a cause of my hairloss and suddenly oily skin?

I don't know. But as you are not feeling ill I wouldn't personally want to rock the boat by changing anything. You could look back over previous results and compare your levels and symptoms to see if that guides you.

My blood results have been the same for the last three years so maybe not the cause of symptoms then x
