A member asked:
Is a tsh level of 5.01 (range: 0.45-4.50) a concern?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypothyroidism.: That TSH value denotes a slight degree of hypothyroidism - a slowing of your thyroid function. At the least, you deserve a follow-up blood test with a full thyroid panel. Sometimes if you're not feeling well on the day the TSH is drawn, it could be a little off. But then it would self-correct. I'd advise a full thyroid blood testing panel as the next step.
