Yes she needs to increase the dose of thyroxine . The dose depends on body weight . 25 mcg is a very small dose . You make it 50 mcg and repeat TSH , T4 , T3 after 2 months

Hi., I can understand your concern. If her TSH levels are raised with symptoms like weight gain, tiredness it's is necessary to increase the dose.
