Normal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels generally fall between 0.4 and 4.0 milliunits per liter (mU/L). TSH levels higher than 4.5 mU/L usually indicate an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), and low TSH levels below 0.4 mU/L indicate an overactive thyroid
A normal Total T4 level in adults ranges from 5.0 to 12.0?g/dL. A normal Total T3 level in adults ranges from 80-220 ng/dL
Most labs say that a normal serum TSH level is somewhere between 0.4 to 4.0 mIU/L, and that a TSH level of 10 mIU/L or higher is indicative of hypothyroidism
