Hi there,
The normal ranges for TSH are trimester-specific.
1. First trimester - 0.1 to 2.5 microIU/ml
2. Second Trimester - 0.2 to 3.0 microIU/ml
3. Third Trimester - 0.3 to 3.0 microIU/ml
However raising your TSH levels can cause growth of the thyroid cancer, which depends upon the initial risk assessment of the cancer.
You should see the initial physician or endocrinologist whom you consulted, for proper risk assessment of your thyroid cancer, before making any attempt to reduce the dose of thyroid cancer.
Hope it helps....
