A member asked:
My son is 19 and his labs show a high tsh but normal free t4. what could that indicate?

How high TSH?: If TSH level is elevated but still below 10 and no goiter, hypothyroidism is unlikely and needs further follow-up in 6-12 months. Mild elevation of TSH is often noted in obese patients.
