Is TSH Level Of 15.5 A Cause For Concern?
Brief Answer:
100 mcg dose
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
You should start with the dosage of 100 mcg of tablet thyronorm once daily before breakfast for hypothyroidism.
Get your TSH and free T4 tested after 2 weeks of taking the table to adjust the dosage.
Thyroid hormones level should be maintained normal for the healthy development of the fetus.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
