Thyroxine is a very important hormone to carry out various bodily functions.Your report shows increase in Serum TSH levels which depicts Hypothyroidism. However you are still in Subclinical stage. You can repeat the test again after 3 months.
Next Steps
If found still high, you need Thyroxine supplements to manage it.
