Diagonose of TSH

2019-03-28 03:22:02
My recent diagnosis report had TSH above 100. I went to an endocrinologist with expectations of understanding that I might have an understanding of what is causing the increase.But what I got was the regular Thyroid prescription. What would be the way to understand what causing hypothyroidism in my body instead and would it be better to understand the cause and start medication? Instead of just kicking of the day with thyroid tablets.
