In reply to Thyroid test scores in ...and the results mean?, posted by jrbecker on October 1, 2002, at 0:19:21
If I remember correctly, the normal THS is between 1 and 4? So your 2.5 is considered normal. Some "alternative" docs will supplement a euthyroid person (person with normal TSH) with thyroid hormone (T3 and/or T4) until the TSH comes down to 1. But even the docs who do that say that it may give the euthyroid patient more energy, but it usually does not have a huge impact on depression.
