Anyone had faint positive at 12dp5dt and still had successful pregnancy?
I took a early pregnancy test yesterday morning and came back positive but the line wasn't dark. I took another one this morning and the line has gotten fainter... (I have been going to the toilet every 2 hrs this night so maybe it wasn't concentrated) . Other tests show almost negative (I really have

Can low iron cause intolerance to thyroxine?
hello, Please see my prev post for my iron results. Since starting levo last year I have felt increasingly unwell on it. Mainly crippling joint and muscle pain which isn’t present when I’m not taking it, unfortunately the introduction of t3 at end of last year has only worsened this too. I can hardly

Early morning blood tests
I see on other posts that an early morning blood test before 09:00hrs is suggested for an accurate reading. I went to have bloods taken yesterday morning at 08:55hrs for ferritin. My phlebotomist found that my blood flow was a bit on the slow side... but ok for the lab test. She thought she might have

Followed advice here, now need help with understanding results
Hi, I’ve learned more here in the last year or so than I’ve ever learned from doctors. I’ve also come to know that I’ve probably been on too low of a Synthroid dosage for far too long. I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s since 2005 or 2006. I had a goiter on my parathyroid and had surgery to remove

Possible Overmedication Woes
I switched to T4/T3 combo in December, I'm self sourcing Tiromel. I was at that point taking 200mcg of Levo, felt okish but felt T3 could be higher it was 5.2 on a range of 3.1-6.8. This was a private test in October. I didnt want to add more Levo so following advice decoded to try some T3. Added 6.25mcg

When is the best time to take T3
Hi I collected my first prescription for T3 Liothyronine 20 mg today. All the instructions on the box tell me is to take one tablet a day. I read the instructions inside and they just say to take exactly as instructed by doctor or pharmacist. So does it matter when the tablet is taken or if it is

Feacal Calprotectin
So because my IBS-D has gotten so bad in recent months, I went back to the doctors. He did a load of tests, and the stool calprotectin test came back raised at 99ug. He then asked me to do a second test which came back at 197ug. He has referred me to a gastroenterologist. This has made me really nervous

Help with latest Blood Test
Hello, I’m hoping someone can give some advice on latest blood test please. I am on 100mgs Levothyroxine. I did trial T3 but didn’t notice much difference by taking T3really. Im not sure if this is because I wasn’t on a high enough dose of L4 at the start of trialing it. I have taken the D1o2 test

Erfa to Liothyronine Thybon Henning Dose Conversion

Optimal Ferritin: Does anyone take a maintenance dose of iron to achieve this?
Dear Forum Members, I am wondering if anyone takes a maintenance dose of iron to keep ferritin optimal? After reading the recommendation here for the Three Arrows supplement I am about to start taking this but would appreciate any advice you have on raising and maintaining ferritin levels.

IVF Cycle Failure/Fertility Diet
Hi - my first cycle of IVF has resulted in a negative pregnancy test. I had 10 follicles, 6 eggs retrieved, 3 mature, 2 fertilised & 1 early blastocyst which was transferred. I was on 450iu Meriofert with Ganerilix. If your first cycle failed what did you change for the second? I'm due to go again
