Low tsh while on levothyroxine
Negative Feedback Regulation of Hypothalamus and
The initial desiccated thyroid dose was based on the conversion: 1mg DTE = 1.667mcg levothyroxine. After 6 weeks of study medication, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were checked and medication adjusted to maintain TSH between 0.5 and 3.0microIU/mL. Once the TSH was within range, medication was continued for at least another 12 weeks.

Conversely, a low TSH. reflects either a low need or desire for thyroid hormone or a low tolerance for the thyroid hormone and is meant to reduce thyroid hormone production. An . optimal . value of TSH means the thyroid hormone levels match the body’s energy needs and/or ability to utilize the energy. Example 2: Patient B’s TSH of ‘ 0.05 ...

Since T3 and T4 were low while TSH levels were high, the problem is with the insufficiency of the thyroid gland to secrete thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Had T3, T4 and TSH levels all been below the normal range, the disorder would be attributed to the insufficiency of the hypothalamus to secrete thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH).

A study of patients with depression found normal TSH levels but low or low-normal FT4 and FT3 values. The mean FT4 was only 11.43 (range: 10.6–19.40 pmol/l). The mean FT3 was only 4.45 (±0.81) pmol/l (range: 4.00–8.3 pmol/l). While the TSH levels were normal, 16% of the FT4 and 30% of the FT3 values were below the reference ranges.

The TSH reference interval will vary depending on the testing laboratory. Laboratories in BC retain specimens for 2 to 7 days in case add-on testing is required. If TSH is ordered initially in combination with fT4 or fT3, the laboratory will perform the TSH test first and then perform the fT4 and fT3 if required, as described in Appendix 1 (see

Serum thyroid hormone levels were measured while the patients were taking desiccated thyroid, and then at least 6 weeks after changing to levothyroxine. The mean T3 levels with desiccated thyroid were significantly higher than with levothyroxine: 289ng/dL vs. …

Thyroid tests at this time showed low TSH 0.005 uIU/ml, high FT3 5.2 ng/dl (1.5 4.1) and high FT4 2.5 ng/dl (0.8-1.9) .Methimazole was restarted at 10 mg every 8 hours which he stopped in April 2004. At this time FT3 and FT4 were normal with a slightly low TSH (0.249) He was lost to follow up and was seen by another endocrinologist in May 2008.

Very low TSH on Levothyroxine. - Thyroid Disorders - MedHelp
The normal TSH range is 0.28-3.89 µIu/mL. Levothyroxine is a thyroid replacement hormone used to treat hypothyroidism. Patients on levothyroxine should have their TSH levels checked at least once per year. (Resp. Ex. 5 at 50; Angel testimony - Tr. at 397; Friedman testimony - Tr. at 645-646.)
