Biotin
Hello: I understand, have read, you should stop taking any supplemental
Biotin
anywhere from 2-4 days before a PSA test as it may skew/change the results; my question is, outside changing PSA test results, does
Biotin
do anything to the PCa you already have, good, or bad; is it safe to supplement

Fingerprick tests reference ranges
Hi I've stopped taking
biotin
so am ready to order a fingerprint test. Try as I might to compare the tests and prices it is beyond my brain capacity to do this and also to find out the reference ranges so that I can compare the results with previous ones that I have.

BIOTIN...VITAMIN tablets and food SUPPLAMENTS
Gp advised multi vitamins and Complan to help boost intake....but both carry
biotin
...many off the shelf and cheap vitamins have
biotin
. But I have ready that
biotin
leaves the body after only a few hours. So can I take all my supplaments but just stop say a few days before my blood tests ?

Biotin and FT4/FT3 testing
Biotin
interference, which is caused by high-dose
biotin
intake and immunoassays using some form of streptavidin-
biotin
complex, is sometimes clinically problematic, giving high or low results.

Blood test results
Hi all, please see my latest blood test results below, done at 9am, fasted, last dose of levo 24 hours before, ceased
biotin
, b12 and b complex supplements 7 days before the test. I also did a Iron test so I'll do another post when I get those results.

Vitamins
I have done some research on line and found that apparently
Biotin
can affect test results, this seems to be in all multivitamins. Also someone recommended taking 200mg selenium for under active thyroid. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Thank you 😀.

do I need to stop Biotin containing supplements before a Blue Horizon iron status profile test?
I am testing my iron after very low ferritin results on a thyroid plus vitamins test ( I am seeing a Dr at private online clinic from the Thyroid UK list) In the past II had normal/high iron, so before I supplement I want to check all the iron indicators my question is: do I need to stop my b complex

Newest Bloods since starting T3!
Bloods were taken fasting, before 9 am, no thyroid meds, a week after the last
Biotin
dose. I'm gluten-free, vegan. Also, THANK YOU SO MUCH to those who posted to help me with the T3 initial dosing. I had NO issues whatsoever!

How much reduction in dose to lower TSH to please the specialist???
I never take
Biotin
. Now he wants fresh blood work before he decides if he needs to reduce my dose to raise my TSH. I'm thinking of next Tuesday, and perhaps making an adjustment to my intake between now and then. Maybe skip a day? Or two? Or three?

Latest NHS Bloods
I followed recommended protocols on timings etc ie. before 0900am, no levo for 24 hours and no
biotin
for 4 days. I note my FT3 % is down to 15%!! however my consultant says all levels are looking good (he's a Nuclear Medicine dr.). Over the last year the trend of my FT3 seems to be dropping.
