The proper dosage for thyroid hormone replacement therapy is calculated by a simple equation, taking into account the patient's weight and their targeted TSH level. Any doctor that is able to prescribe medicine should have this information available.

That being said, as a PP mentioned, you might have something else going on other than simple hypothyroidism, so you would definitely still want to see a specialist.
