General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

The TSH levels should vary from 0.5-5 miU/L. If your TSH is under this range or over it, this will determine if the thyroid is working more that it should or less than it should and this may guide further tests and treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
