TSH continues to rise. Anyone else have elevated TSH?

Had physical in December. Tsh was 2. But my total test was 75. Fast forward to April I began TRT. My tsh was 6.5 and then on retest it was like 4.5.
This week I had labs for TRT and my TSH is 16! I'm wondering if it was an anomaly due to caffeine use beforehand or that I had it done at end of day but I can't find research backing up those cause/effect relationships. I don't have common low thyroid symptoms like dry skin, constipation, etc. but I do wonder if maybe I am suffering from inability to lose weight because I started the newest Insanity two weeks ago and have lowers calories slightly by way of carb cycling and I've had no circumference loss on waist.

Any thoughts, advice, research? I told my general doctor about my tsh of 6 and he said it was subclinical and didn't warrant treatment yet. Gonna let him know about the tsh 16.
Hope I don't have to be on thyroid Meds and TRT both for life.

You should get a full thyroid panel. This is not caused by TRT.

Yep gonna mention it to MD. I don't think TRT causes this either. My chief suspect is Deca. There is research it can damage thyroid. I blame deca for my low t and hypothyroid. My t was fine before my first cycle couple years back. Then it went down to 65.
But I accept this. I knew the risks of AAS. Just like everyone else here. But hypothyroid seems to be less common here than hypogonadism.

Deca shuts u down hard.

Deca shuts u down hard.

Shutdown is shutdown right? Could you elaborate on shutdown hard?

Deca shuts down HPTA profoundly and more severely and longer-lasting in a relatively small dose. I believe the famous study I read showed that just 100mg shut down all natural T production for 4 or more weeks. Compound that with several hundred more or thousand more mg's on a Deca cycle = shut down hardest. My body is a prime example. I'm 1.3 years post Deca and still don't make much T.
