Treatment of hypothyroidism depends on level of TSH and also what medications you are on already. Since you have raised TSH level you may need to increase your medication dosage by 25 mcg. Repeat the test after 45 days.
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist or endocrinologist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
