Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX ,
Thanks for the query.

I have read your query and understand your concern. You are having high TSH level .

If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
do investigation like USG Neck & upload complete thyroid profile report with TSH , T4, T3 & TPO antibodies to help you better .
You might need Thyroxine Replacement Therapy. Do investigations & revert back to me .

Hope this information helpful to you .If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
