A member asked:
My elder sisters were diagnosed with elevated tsh. dr. said it's familial. my htsh came 6.25. should i be worried? what might be causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TSH: Your TSH might be a bit high and the cause would be a decrease in the chemicals (T4 and T3) in the thyroid gland. Familial or otherwise, did your doctor tell you your TSH was high and did she/he recommend treatment?
