Armour or the single pill - hair loss
Hi Has anyone got Hashimotos and tried Armour or been on the progesterone only pill? As about three months ago I went from NP to Armour NDT as my TSH was nearly 4.5 taking 1.5 grains of NP (I have always taken 1.5 of WP and done ok on this) But then at the same time I also changed from the depo injection

Just received the full copy of my blood test where I can see my TSI
My TSI is 1.20 (0.00 - 2.00) Does it mean that I ddi not have Graves and RAI is not right treatment for me? Thank you very much for your opinions.

Is it common to get chest pains with thyroid problems?
I saw a post today from someone who was having chest pain with their thyroid problem and was wondering if my pain could indicate I have the same.

Iodine as a potential endocrine disruptor-a role of oxidative stress
Am somewhat surprised by this substantial paper on iodine - deficiency and excess are both addressed. As well as protection from radioactive iodine. They claim: [i]Universal awareness that iodine is a potential EDC would make consumers more careful regarding their diet and what they supplement in tablets

Graves' Ophthalmopathy in the Setting of Primary Hypothyroidism
I have heard a specialist ophthalmic nurse insist to a patient that Graves' Ophthalmopathy only occurs in hyperthyroidism. Whilst a full review article including links to all known case reports might be desirable, even one case report demonstrates that it is possible. I think it is also good that the

Hyperthyroid and TED - Is Thyroidectomy the only answer?
Hi All, I am in US and I was diagnosed with Graves back in Dec of 2017. I have been on Methimazole since then and my dose needs to be adjusted regularly as my thyroid levels keeps fluctuating. I went on quite a low dose as low as 2.5 mg from 30 mg back in 2021 and looked like I might get into remission

Personalised Vitamin Plans (radio)
Just a quick alert to the devious vitamin sales people! I'm sure many here are all too well aware of schemes like these. However, the end result seems to suggest just taking a multivitamin. And we know that there is a strong (and evidenced) view that multivitamins are not ideal. Issues like combinations

Long term Carbimazole
I was diagnosed with Graves in December 2020, this caused AF so medicated for both successfully. Eventually down to 5 mg of Carbimazole and no other meds. Feeling good and then Tom by Endo, I would need to come off Carbimazole to see if I was in remission. Bloods on 5mg TSH 1.34 Bloods after 8 weeks

Salivary gland pain
Has anyone experienced salivary gland problems after RAI? I had RAI two years ago and sometimes have pain under my ear when swallowing a bit like I had when I received RAI.
