Thyroid Binding Globulin Elevation

Your levels indicate that you may have TBG elevation. This pattern of hypothyroidism is often associated with oral contraceptives or estrogen replacement therapy. Too much estrogen can lead to an increase in TBG, which can leave a shortage of free thyroid hormone available to enter the cells.

This calculator certainly does not represent advise from a medical professional–seeing a specialized thyroid doctor can help you understand how to clear the body of excess estrogen and remedy your symptoms.
