Alot of the Hypothyroidism are symptom based. Someone with clearly no Thyroid Disorder should be around 1-2 on the scale. In 2003 the Endocrynology Community narrowed the values of the TSH levels to .5-3.0. So if you are over 3.0 you should be diagnosed with Hypothyroidism. I am currently on 50mcg of Synthroid. Not sure if it is working to well or not yet. You can also get an Ultrasound of your Thyroid to check for any abnormalities. Synothroid also does NOT help you lose weight. It simply levels out your Hormones which takes a few months of proper dosages, then you can diet and workout on a regular basis to lose weight normally. Well I am not a doctor by any means. I gathered all this info from Various Doctors and online reading. So please don't take this as my diagnosing your problems. Just simply giving some helpful knowledge.

Still other issues are present but they are more to do with adrenals rather than thyroid.

Last year my TSH level was 13, and I started on .25 mcg of Levothyroxine (the generic brand of Synthroid) for thyroid replacement therapy. Within a few months, my levels were down to around 3.... which I heard was supposed to be normal. Now, what is a normal level? Well, doctors debate about what is considered 'normal' for most hormones, it seems. Most doctors will say that the normal range for the TSH is 0.5 - 5.5. Some endocrinologists will say it is a much smaller range: 0.3 - 3.0. Since I am on a Kaiser plan, their current normal range is 0.320 - 5.500. Since I still had symptoms of hypothyroidism, I decided to take the next step and talk with an endocrinologist. What he told me was quite shocking to hear. The optimal level for the TSH is .5 - 1.5.... or really .5 - 1.0. That was so surprising to me. How many other people must be like me? Within the normal range but still dealing with the symptoms of a hormone imbalance! The endocrinologist I met with was a fantastic doctor. He upped my dosage, and I am so thrilled to say: I am finally feeling better. The symptoms are clearing up.. FIGHT TO GET IN THE RIGHT RANGE.
