High TSH 7.41
Got my thyroid test done. It is 7.41 which seems to be in higher range.
I had taken thyroxin during my pregnancy 3 years ago because that time it was onbthe upper limits, after delivery I left having medicine.
Want to know which medicine should be taken
Is thyroxin still suited for me ? Is it 50 mg?
Attached report
Also I got this test done 10 months ago then thyroid level was 6.25.
Hence doctor suggested that if no symptoms are felt then you can ignore it.
However now i do not want to ignore.
Please suggest.

This is called as subclinical hypothyrodisum. Even at this level v do start treatment if u have goiter or neck swelling, anti TPO antibodies positive, planning for pregnancy/ infertility. So if any of the above is positive need to start on treatment.
