I had a full thyroid panel done due to my pre TRT bloodwork showing a high TSH of 3.7. Does anyone have any input on these follow up labs? rT3 is a little high and T3 is a little below mid range, I don't think this warrants medication though, or am I wrong? Luckily all the antibody tests look good I believe?
free T4 1.34 ng/dL 0.82 - 1.77
TSH 3.54 uIU/mL 0.450 - 4.5
reverse T3 18.1 ng/dL 9.2 - 24.1
Thyroglobulin antibody <1 IU/mL 0.0 - 0.9
Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) Ab 12 IU/mL 0 - 34
Triidothyronine, free, serum 3.0 pg/mL 2.0 - 4.4
In terms of hypo symptoms, skin on my body is very dry (altho skin on my face quite oily since starting TRT), and my joints are a little sore (TRT seems to be helping here, but slowly). Energy is good and stay lean/muscular very easily. I don’t really gain much fat no matter what I eat, especially since starting TRT and pigging out lately lol. I'm on about week 5 of TRT.
