I had a baby 4 months ago and at that time was put on 100mcg dose of Levothyroxine. They have kept me on this dose ever since and my TSH level is now 0.33 mU/L (0.27-4.20) They have said to repeat this in a year. I feel fine symptom wise but I've noticed I can't lose weight no matter what I try and do. I'm 30 now and over the last few years of being diagnosed and taking Levothyroxine, weight loss hasn't been a problem for me luckily. I'm a bit stuck on what to do moving forward. Anybody else been in a similar situation? It's getting me down! Thank you.

Have you also tested FT4 & FT3? Often the NHS doesnt do this but its essentail to know how well replaced you are and if you are converting T4 to T3.

A few years ago your ferritin was deficient and B12 very low. What happened about those levels and are you now supplementing them, also folate & D3?
