Anti-thyroid antibodies can exist for two areas which control production of thyroid hormones. Rising antibodies may cause increased need for thyroid medication to assure normal levels, so further testing for "free T4 and/or TSH" may be necessary.

Once the diagnosis of Hashimoto is established, level of antibodies is not relevant. The dose of your medication should be adjusted based on your TSH and free T4 results. Wish you good health!
