Eye issues related to hypothyroidism
Hi all, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in January of this year and started on 50mg levothyroxine. I’m having bloods every six weeks and working on my iron, vitamin D levels, folate and selenium. I’ll add my test results at the end for info. Overall I am feeling much better but I developed eye

Subclinical hypothyroidism and IVF
Hi, I was directed here from the Fertility UK forum. We’ve had 1 round of IVF/ICSI which we were referred for due to my partner’s low sperm count. Our first embryo transfer was not successful. We have a frozen embryo, but the clinic advised I get my Vit D and thyroid levels tested before transfer

Really high TSH
Hi I had a recent blood test and my TSH has come back at 8.7, this is the highest I've ever had. The docs called me on Thursday and when I said I'm on 200mcg Levo they said they needed to get me in for a review. I'm going today at 10.30am. TSH attached T4 is 15.3 (11-22.6) T3 is 4.2 (3.5-6.5) Any

Medscape article: what's in a name? (brand vs genetic levothyroxine)
This made interesting reading and I've got mixed feelings after reading it. Certainly they are focused on TSH as a measurement of adequate levothyroxine replacement, which I think is dubious. However it contains some good explanations. They seem to be totally unaware that allergies and intolerances exist

Next step in solving the mystery of my burning feet, but need a little bit of advice

thyroid issues and ivf
Hi I’ve recently had 2 unsuccessful fet’s, one was a BFN and the other stopped growing at around 5 weeks. I’ve had some bloods done recently and it appears that there’s some issues with my thyroid. (Undectable tsh and below range low t4). I know the big impact being hypothyroid can have on fertility

High ferritin results
Hi 👋 Latest results attached I have been on a stable dose of 1.5 grains of Armour Thyroid daily, for a couple of years now, prescribed by a private thyroid doctor. The NHS didn't want to treat my borderline low thyroid. I feel good, and have no symptoms, but I am concerned about my high ferritin

Results Advice Please
A brief bit of information first. Last year I was diagnosed with cancer, resulting in major surgery in June and a long recuperation. (I have been told 12 months is not unusual) I had just started to feel much more normal when I went to the GP for an unrelated matter. She asked how I was, I said I still

Pregnancy & liothyronine
Hi guys. I need some advice urgently. I've just found out I'm pregnant, so only 4-5 weeks, but I've been doing a liothyronine trial of 2 x 10mcg daily plus 75mcg levothyroxine for the last 8-10 weeks (previously I was on 125mcg levothyroxine). I've rung the hospital to inform the endocrinologist, but

Back to square one
My Dr checked my thyroid levels with some other blood tests without me knowing, so I had taken my T4 (50mcg) about an hour before! Based on the results, she said I was now fine and took me off the medication. I tried to argue saying it needed to be before my meds and she said that was wrong. I had always

Help with results undetectable tsh
hi I posted the other week about having a tsh of 0.008 a few weeks ago but it was an at home test. I’ve had them repeated through the doctors and these were the results: Tsh 0.001 (0.49-5.2) Free t4 11.4 (11.5-22.7) Free t3 5.6 (3.5-6.5) It doesn’t make sense to be hyper while my t4 is low. I’ve
