A member asked:
Thyroid: free t3 low, all other tests normal, so do i need synthroid (thyroxine)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure if need any: The TSH is normal so it might be a variation of normal or euthyroid. It also might be a developing thyroid condition, but there would be symptoms, like fatigue. It would be wise to see your doctor to follow up.
