Stuck: need help

Tiffany

Hello!

I’ve been more of a lurker than a poster and I’m hoping to get some advice.

I’ve been diagnosed for subclinical hypothyroidism. I was diagnosed when my levels were 6.75. I was put on 0.05 then it dropped to 0.32. I felt that it was too risky for me to continue that dose as that would take me over the edge to Hyperthyroidism. Now, I’m on 0.025 and TSH came back at 2.11.

Question is: I do NOT feel good in any way with this new dose. I’m always tired, exhausted, I now have mid-cycle bleeding and my hair started to fall out again. I’ve gained weight easily when I continue my normal diet. I’ve been working with my OBGYN with this and I feel like I should get another opinion. Should I see my primary care doctor? A Endocrinologist? A Fertility specialist? Is 2.11 even a good level to be TTC?? I’ve read that the optimal level was between 1.0 to 1.5?

I’m stuck and don’t know what direction I should go. I believe that I shouldn’t go back to my OB because it may waste both of our time. Thank you! 🙏🏼
