Yes, you want your TSH to be closer to 1.
Here is a great link:
http://www.thyroid.org/patients/brochures/Hypothyroidism%20_web_booklet.pdf
Page 18 has the recommended TSH range under treatment.
Also cpnsider having your thyroid antibodies tested. High levels can cause miscarriage.
Thank You. It didn't sound right to me but I think I tend to question everything the docs tell me. I will check out the web sight.
I hope the site is useful.
I also question everything I am told. Luckily, I have a medical background.
