Should I see an endocrinologist or explore other options?

Post Content

Hi there, 29F here. I got my blood tested for a thyroid panel today and these were the results: TSH 1.22 uiu/ml FT3 3.89 pmol/L FT4 27 pmol/L Primary said FT3 is slightly low and FT4 is high but I have a history of taking biotin. Problem is, my symptoms align more with hypothyroidism which doesn't fit my labs. I can go see an endocrinologist by next week but I'm thinking of exploring other options like an ob-gyn or dermatologist because some of my main symptoms are associated with PCOS as well. Weight gain, extreme hair loss, lifelong irregular periods. But I also do have brain fog, coldness in extremities and fatigue. Tl;dr: Do my lab results warrant an endo visit right now or should I start exploring other diseases that have similar symptoms with a different doctor; e.g. gyno for PCOS?
