What Do The Following Thyroid Test Results Indicate?
Hello dr. I was pregnant and got my thyroid tested. 1. T4 free FT4 - 0.76 ng/dL TSH 1.222 uIU/mL Started taking thyrowel on daily basis. Rechecked my TSH 1.52 uIU/ml Continued thyrowel till due date. After delivery I got it checked again 2. TT3 - 1.18 NG/ML TT4 - 8.98 UG/DL TSH - 1.64 UIU/ML so I stop taking thyrowel After 2 months in got my thyroid profile done. 3.T3 - 97 NG/DL T4 -5.1 UG/DL TSH - 2.61 UIU/ML I am a nursing mother. Should I start taking thyrowel again? Is it safe to take thyrowel while breastfeeding? Do I have to start thyronorm? What mg?

Hi,
You don't need to restart Thyronorm at the moment as your TSH levels are within normal limits.
It is absolutely safe to take Thyrowel while breastfeeding.
Get your TSH and free T3, T4 checked after 3 months and visit an endocrinologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
