  #2

Estrogen would be a possibility, because it increases TBG synthesis, i.e. elevated total serum T4 with no effect on TSH. I am just not sure about the goiter...

  #3

She is clinically non hyperthyroid cos the TSH levels r normal and since the total t4 is increased then the TBG is increased, she has a goiter

wht drug is causing this or which drug shud be given in the treatment??
