Thyroid concern..Tsh elevated
Hi I recently got my Tsh level checked and it's elevated..9.6
Is it required to immediately start medication for thyroid? Or should I wait and watch and repeat the test after sometime and then start medication? Is it something to worry about? My Tsh level was 5.1 in Feb 2020 when I last got it checked. Also I have cholesterol on the borderline..213 total and 150 LDL. Please suggest me what to do.
