And then typically in those patients,
TSH will even look normal
on a
lab test but T3 will be low.
My
TSH levels were usually within «range» at the
lab and I did frequent full thyroid panel as well to
test T4, antibodies, free T3 and so
on.
On a
lab test this sort of a problem can show up with
TSH being normal or high, T4 is normal but T3 is low and T3 uptake is low.
Subclinical hypothyroidism means your
TSH is within «normal» range
on a
lab test, but outside of the therapeutic range I mentioned.
Be aware that ideal
TSH is around 1.8, which is far less than the standard «range»
on lab tests.
Also,
TSH ranges
on conventional
lab tests may fail to pick up some cases of subclinical hypothyroidism or impending cases of autoimmune thyroid conditions, otherwise termed Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, which is the most common cause of hypothyroidism.
