T4 has increased but TSH is reduced
I am 17 weeks pregnant, my TSH got increased to 5.75 a month ago for which I raised the dose for thyroxine to 150mcg from 100mcg and now my TSH is reduced to 1.84 but T4 has increased to 15.44, I have been taking thyroxine for last years but T4 was always in range but since pregnancy, it is increasing every month and this time has crossed the upper limit. I started my pregnancy with 75mcg but had to increased the last dose a month back as TSH was 5.75 but today it came as 1.84
Should i reduced the thyroxine to 125mcg ?
