Description
My patient has a high TSH but normal T4. When should I treat?
A high TSH with normal free T4 often calls for confirmation and context rather than an automatic prescription. Persistence, degree of elevation, symptoms, age, pregnancy, antibodies, and competing risks determine whether treatment is more likely to help than observation.
