Help boosting thyroid without medication?
Hello all I have posted before as my thyroid function is poor but always comes back in range (my TSH never rises even with low levels) so no chance of medication on the NHS (other than statins for high cholesterol which I refuse). I did some recent tests TSH 1.95 (0.27-4.2) T4 14.6 (12-22) T3

Dr declining Levo increase
I was diagnosed with autoimmune hypothyroidism last August. Currently on 75mcg levothyroxine. Symptoms are better but not gone as much as I’d hoped so requested an increase via letter as couldn’t get appt. They then phoned me for a telephone appt but said as numbers are in range they won’t agree to

Are these results okay?
Hi,I have been having overwhelming fatigue resulting in me needing to sleep during the day most days, which is most unlike me. I have also been having heavy periods every 3 weeks, sometimes even less, last cycle was 19 days. Terrible brain fog and inability to concentrate. GP said it could be thyroid

I live in the US and have an endochronologist (excuse the spelling)..........I have been on 50 mcg for about 15 years............and this dose seemed to be on the medium side. Your dose seemed alot lower because of the decimal point you wrote (not sure if they even make synthroid at that super low level

Any success stories after poor follicle response?
Hi everyone, I’ve never posted on here before but hoping someone can offer some positive stories or experience. I’m doing my first round of IVF as a single woman, 40 and low AMH of 3.8. Just had my day 8 scan and only have four follicles size 16, 14, 9 and 7. The doctors have said I’ll get 2-3 eggs max

Advice Please
Hi everyone. I have had 16 gynaecological operations starting at aged 13 and ending 23 years ago a day before my 40th birthday when I had an emergency hysterectomy where for some reason they left my cervix. Following my op they tried HRT but my BP shot up so I was taken off it. Urinary incontinence

Levo being reduced, but feeling under medicated.
Hi, I would greatly appreciate some input on my test results! I have been hypothyroid for over 17 years, and have always adhered unquestioningly to the doctor’s guidance, assuming that they were doing all they could. Having found this site, however, I am starting to wonder if there is more that can

Stopping Zoladex & HRT
I just wondered if anyone has had any negative experiences when stopping zoladex injections and HRT? I've been on zoladex for around 8 months now but my moods have become so extreme on them and I've still been bleeding severe on them I've decided to stop to see how I get on. I had my last injection

Blood Test Results
Hello, I would be grateful for some advice regarding these results. The background is that my Levothyroxine dose was reduced from 100mcg to 75 in early February 2024, due to a TSH only test which was below range. By late March I could barely function so I had a private test prior to the GP's TSH test

Advice after recent blood test results please
I have been taking Levothyroxine for decades but only recently appreciated, after advice from this fabulous website, the correct way to undertake thyroid blood tests. After decades of iron deficiency I had an iron infusion a few months ago (therefore ferritin now high), I inject B12 regularly for Pernicious

FT3 often higher than FT4; are my symptoms even hypo?
Hello everyone! I've been hypo now for a bit more than two years. Probably three or more, but diagnosed 2 years ago, and also taken levo since then. As doctors can be a bit difficult, and I have felt with no other choice, I have raised my levo dose myself several times. Otherwise I would still be
