A member asked:

I was 150 tsh..after tsking 100 mg got controlled to 3.18 now taking 75 mg it has further lowered to 1.15..should i further lower to 50 mg.?

It depends: The answer to this question depends on how you feel, how long it took for the TSH tests to change, and the result f the next test. The ideal dose of thyroid replacement takes time to determine, and can change with other changes in your health. Stay on the current dose until you & your doctor discuss it.
