1. Get your thyroid levels checked. Cold weather can increase your body's need for thyroid hormone, make you feel more hypothyroid, and may cause your TSH to rise, and Free T4 and Free T3 levels to drop. If you notice hypothyroid symptoms worsening as the weather gets colder, it's worth having your blood levels evaluated.
When a TSH test is ordered, I am trying to determine exactly how much of this hormone TSH is circulating in the blood. This provides me with information about how the thyroid and metabolism are working. When the TSH level is high, it is producing too much âstimulatingâ hormone, which may indicate hypothyroidism. The converse to that is â if it produces too little, and the TSH level is low, then the thyroid is hyperactive. Generally the TSH level is ordered depending on your symptoms. Though the ânormalâ range for TSH levels vary depending on the labs, the practitioners and individuals. In 2002, The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists changed the range for TSH to be between 0.30 and 3.04.
