Thyroid problem
My son is 15 months old and his weight is 9.6.He has got poor appetite and will get constipated rarely so doctor asked me to take thyroid test and the report states
Free t3 : 4.25
Free t4 : 1.11
TSH : 3.02
Freet4 and TSH are in normal range but free t4 alone has got raised
I'm worried about it Please let me know whether my baby is having hypo or hyperthyroidism and is it necessary to put him under medication
