Putting on weight
I have under thyroid and have posted a few questions so sorry for another one. Do any if you find if you put on the slightest but of weight it triggers you to go more underactive? For example at Xmas like most people I put on a bit of weight then I feel I go underactive and then put on more weight.

Stopping Block and Replace
After 8 long years I have decided to try stopping BR ( 5mg. Carbimazole and 75 mcg. Levo ) to check for remission. Just come back from GP appoint. that unexpectedly went well ( usually try and avoid them for thyroid issues) I chose a GP trainer hoping he might know a bit more about AITD. Receptionist

Armour Thyroid produced exclusively in USA?
I spoke with Roseway clinic in London who said they get their Armour Thyroid from Canada. I thought it was exclusively manufactured in USA. I came across a Canadian pharmacy called Forest who say they supply Armour Thyroid. Is it identical to Armour Thyroid from USA? Any advice will be greatly appreciated

Help with dosing ov Armour thyroid
Hello everyone, Currently on 112.5 mcg of Levo , split into two doses , and no thyroid, I am switching to Armour thyroid . I am apprehensive about dosages to start with, as I react very strongly to drugs. For example, taking Levo in one dose instead two, gives me headaches and migraine-like visual

thy3f thyroid nodules on either side - doctors recommend total thyroidectomy
hi there I was recently diagnosed with 2 thy3f nodules on either side of my thyroid. Thy3f is an indeterminate result (25%malignancy 75% benign). I have no symptoms recently had a baby, breastfeeding, busy mom of 3 on no medication. Has anyone elected watch and wait tactic instead of thyroidectomy?

Not feeling that great on Armour Thyroid
Hi ...I started taking Armour Thyroid a few months back and these are my latest blood test results. I haven't been feeling that great on it as yet. My dry cracked heels getting worse, falling asleep very early evening etc. After this blood test I started to add a little Levothyroxine daily (around 20mcg

Enlarged thyroid
In May 2023 I was advised that I have an enlarged thyroid gland that was partially causing narrowing of the trachea this was seen via CT. I had thyroid bloods done and advised they all came back normal. In December had a repeat CT which showed the same as before as well as ultrasound scan which confirmed

Same dose of ERFA and FT3 still rising!
My last consultation with private Endo in November was we agreed I stay on 2 grains daily, split 7.00am 2.00pm. Although nearing top of FT3 range he felt there was still a bit of room if it continued to rise and also wanted to see if my main symptoms, constipation and poor quality sleep improved. In
