51 yo male on TRT with pertinent values stable in the upper third of physiological range.
TSH - 2.970 (0.35-5.500)
Free T4 - 1.56 (.89-1.76)
Total T4 - 5.1 (4.5-10.9)
Free T3 - 3.7 (2.3-4.2)
Normal cortisol.
Everything looks normal and well within range with the exception of Total T4. It's my understanding that free is more important than total.
Any thoughts?
