A member asked:

I really do think that i got something wrong with my thyroid.every woman in my fam does.all my blood tests come back normal.is there another test i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not, but...: There is something we call sub-clinical hypothyroidism in which the usual blood tests don't show a thyroid problem. A TRH stimulation test is helpful, but cumbersome, time-consuming and expensive. Don't ask for it. My advice is to open your mind to other reasons for whatever is making you think there is something wrong with your thyroid. Get evaluated for your complaints, not for your theories.
