alright well my labs came back and the numbers are
T3 uptake 33%
Total T4 6.5 ug/dl (4.0-11.0)
TSH 6.781 uU/Ml (.5-4.5)
FSH 2.0 iu/L (1.5-14.3)
LH 3.7 iu/L (1.0-5.6)
Prolactin 19.7 ng (2-18)

Apparently I'm hypo on the thyroid side. So what do these numbers means and what will synthroid do to help me? If someone could help explain what the numbers mean to me and if I should take the synthroid that would be greatly appreciated. And if you think I shouldn't take it what other options are there? I want to ask my doc about HCG to restart my system should I?

Oh and the dosage for synthroid was 75 mcg a day.
