[QUOTE="John O'Connor, post: 36276, member: 13064"] Note TSH of 2.42 is not terrible. But since 1.0 is optimal - keep an eye on it. If you notice it increasing, you should probably have anti-TPO antibody checked. Like many diseases, they are progressive and become worse over time. Catching it early and using low dose synthroid/levothyroxine is likely all you would need. But maybe just getting Vitamin D levels up to optimal levels could bring your TSH levels back towards 1.0. Many people do not catch high TSH until it is in the 10.0+ range. Similar to not getting treated for hypogonadism until levels are critically low. Better to be proactive and have TSH measured annually. Also, just as many doctors will not treat hypogonadism unless testosterone is below 350, or 300 or 250 - many will also not treat thyroid issues unless TSH is over 5.0. [/QUOTE]
