TSH: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) has a normal range around 0.5-4.70 uIU/mL. This number is within normal range for most people at most labs. Don't know how your other Thyroid hormone levels are.

See below: Agree with Dr. Fowler: You may be on your way to becoming hypothyroid. It would be useful to consult an endocrinologist for additional testing as to ascertain if you should be on thyroid replacement medication. Wish you good health!
