A member asked:

Is there any cure if your thyroid levels are normal but u have extremely high thyroid peroxidase and a goiter with nodules?

Specializes in Endocrinology

No cure: However, you have hashimoto's and may become hypothyroid in the future. Have yearly check of the TSH or more frequently if you plan to get pregnant! TSH levels should be under 2.5 - 3.5 non pregnant. "normal" tshs of 4 or 5 are not normal.
