Question 1

a girl aged about 11 years , tsh level is >150 , t3 (liothyronine) and t4 are 97 and 3.80 , what we do?

Accepted Answer

Hypothyroid: These numbers are indicative of severe hypothyroidism.  I would expect that she has symptoms of low thyroid.  She needs to be on thyroid hormone.  If she is already on thyroxine, make sure she is really taking it consistently.  If she is taking it, she needs a significantly higher dose.

Question 2

my tsh level is above 150 is hypo or hyper?

Accepted Answer

Hypo: Your TSH level is indicative of hypothyroidism.
Please see your doctor for a prescription for replacement medication.

Question 3

is a tsh level of 4.150 in a 55 year old male indicative of hypothyroidism? what are all of the symptoms of hypothyroidism in men?

Accepted Answer

: Symptoms of hypothyroidism are  fatigue, cold intolerance, constipation, weight gain. Early stages do not have any symptoms. In late untreated condition, obesity, joint pain and heart disease can occur. Accurate thyroid function testing is available and treatment is safe and effective. Visit your doctor please. Hope it helps .

Question 4

is it normal for a tsh level to drop from 1.50 to 0.8 in 6 months? i am suffering from extreme fatigue. also b12 is 300, normal level?

Accepted Answer

Normal labs: Hi. Those TSHs are both normal. TSH can vary in the normal range. Assuming you have no pituitary disease (which is relatively uncommon), your thyroid function is normal. I always check TSH and free T4; have both would also detect pituitary disease, but like I said, secondary (pituitary) hypothyroidism is relatively uncommon. Your B12 level is also normal. Your exhaustion etiology lies elsewhere

Question 5

is tsh level 14 risky?

Accepted Answer

Follow up ASAP: Depends on the cause. Possibilities include hypothyroidism , Pituitary tumors, or thyroid disease .
Only a doctor can determine the cause by proper history, physical and appropriate laboratory/imaging tests .
It is dangerous if nothing is done. Please see your health care provider to receive appropriate medical care for this abnormal test result. Whoever ordered
The test should provide followup.

Question 6

what is tsh level range?

Accepted Answer

Can vary: Normal range of TSH levels can vary among different labs. Normal TSH range is 0.4-4.2 mu/l.

Question 7

is a tsh level of 3.81 normal?

Accepted Answer

Depends: On who you ask.  Most lab reports show normal as being 0.5 - 5 mlu/l, but many people feel the range should be 0.3 - 3.  If you are being treated for hypothyroidism, the ideal range is 1 -2.  I usually start to take notice when someone's TSH is >2.5.  
See http://www.Nlm.Nih.Gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003684.Htm.

Question 8

tsh level is 5.69 is that high?

Accepted Answer

TSH HIGH?: Yes that is elevated.  You should see your doctor to discuss this and possible treatment of your thyroid gland.

Question 9

whats a good tsh level for men?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on the normal range for the lab doing the test. Our lab is .35-3.5.

Question 10

is a tsh level of 4.0 a concern?

Accepted Answer

No: TSH of 4 is within normal limits.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex.
