It depends: It is too low if you are not taking any medications, if you are taking thyroid medication due to a history of thyroid cancer and past thyroidectomy it is considered normal, and it is too low if you have congenital hypothyroidism and are taking thyoid medication.

What is a normal range for TSH levels?

0.4–4.0 µIU/mL: However, the upper limit may be slightly too high, with several studies showing TSH above 2 may be associated with increased risk of hypothyroidism later in life. This is the normal range for adults. It is different for children.
