A member asked:

4 months ago tsh was 4.54 (range: 0.45-4.50). repeated and it is now 5.01. what are the chances i have hashimoto's?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hypothyroidism: Your thyroid is not functioning at the normal rate and you need to take medication for it. Whether it is Hashimoto or not is immaterial, though Hashimoto is a common cause of hypothyroidism. It would be prudent to see an endocrinologist for evaluation and treatment.
