My tsh value on first day of menstrual cycle was 6.24 miu/l. however, a repeat sample on day 3 showed 3.66 miu/l. should i be concerned??

No: No. If you have symptoms that are consistent with hypohthyroidism, then you may want to have it repeated, but fluctuations can be seen.

No: The repeat value is well within range. One borderline high value is not diagnostic of low thyroid.
