Triiodothyronine (t3) =61.60
Thyroxine (t4) =3.4
Thyroid stimulating hormone =greater than 100.0
Your wife's TSH value is really high,she is Hypothyroid and she would require to take additional thyroxine tablets to avoid complications in pregnancy . Kindly consult with your OBGYN and Endocrinologist and start treatment right away.
