Please contact your prescribed doctor for dose adjustment if you think you take the medication appropriately (take the pill first thing in the morning with empty stomach, not eating for at least 30 minutes and not taking with another medication in 2 hours) and you do not take biotin supplement which can cause a lab error in TSH measurement in certain lab techniques. Take care.
