Your father needs a clinical reassessment. What was his diagnosis? What all tests were done? Was he assessed for Autoimmune Thyroiditis? How about his Vitamin D3 levels?

You should increase the dose of thyroxine to 112.5 mg. Then check it after 1 month . Dietary restriction is needed.

Hi as ur father’s TSH value is increasing that means his thyroid levels are decreasing. That means 100mcg dose u are using is not sufficient make it 100+12.5mcg/day and repeat the TSH test after 1 month.
