I have been on thyronorm since 20 years for hypothyroidism.
First TSH was 20 and on treatment with thyronorm 100 it got normal and then in 20 years I have tried doses of 75 and 50 according to doctor's advice.
Since last 3 years I was on thyronorm 88.
TSH was 2.5 .
Recently I skipped few doses unknowingly and did not give my h gap between thyronorm tablet and food, may be because of that my TSH value increased to 5.
So doctor asked me to take thyronorm 100 mcg.
But in 2 weeks with thyronorm 100 dose my TSH value is now 1.39 .
I am confused about whether to reduce the dose or continue 100 mcg.
Hoping for suggestions.

Thyroxin is a replacement hormone that has to be taken daily, and could not be skipped.Anything between 0.5 to 4.3 of TSH is normal.However if you recheck the thyroid function tests after a month ,and levels are lower , you may need to change the dose under the supervision of your doctor.
Patient's detailed medical history is required. It is recommended to consult a doctor professional through the Practo app or visit a local medical facility for a thorough evaluation.
Please keep in mind that detailed medical history is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment.
