Lab results

[dani1979]

I recently had some thyroid tests done and they read that my t3 was 223 and my t4 was 16.6 but my TSH was at a normal level. What does this mean? Does this mean that I have hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism? Please help all of this is so confusing. Also I have low levels of estrogen and progesterone in my body.

hello all ,

I recently had some blood which included thyroid tests.my doctor is away an will not be back for 2 weeks. I don't really understand the results, If someone can please give me some insight that would be great! test results states,

thy perox AB-  3.17   normal range 1.20
thryroglob AB - 2.1    normal range 1.0

from looking at the reference range, it looks like mine are slightly higher. & i have also heard slightly higher then normal range can still be considered normal to a primary doctor. is this true.
thanks, cindy

Abnormal TSH diagnoses hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, along with the FTs which relates thyroid status or in some cases
non-thyroid illnesses. If there is a normal TSH with two test to rule out a fluke or error and still an abnormal FT-4, perhaps something else is going on. Or Lab error.  However, both FTs need to be tested with the TSH.

However, I am not a doctor.

That is not true at all a normal TSH doesn't mean your not either.  My TSH level reads normal with meds but my T4 level is still really low....I am Hypo with a T4 receptor issue.  Ask your dr.

If your TSH is normal, indicates neither  hyperthyroid nor hypothyroid.
