History of continued low and fluctuating iron levels - advice?
hi folks. Just had my latest bloods back from helpful GP (he’s actually happy for me to sort my thyroid with Roseway! TSH barely exists) My iron is pretty abysmal tho .. Last time i had my transferrin saturation index done it was 40% so bang on mid way. January I think it was. It’s now dropped to19%

Stevodat
Hi Guys, New to this forum but have 7 years tackling & experimenting with nutrition for Hashimotos. With a keen background in nutrition I was determined to address it with this and avoid any thyroid drug interaction if possible. My antibodies were as high as 3500 at worst and are now 528 and dropping

Recommendations for NDT without prescription
Hello everyone, In looking to buy NDT without prescription. I used to be on erfa before I moved back to UK and since I've been here, I have been on levo and it's not working well for me. I'd very much appreciate recommendations via PM. Thank you so much.

how soon after stopping prog/estro did you get period?
Found out today that our first fet failed. I already took my progesterone shot and morning estrace today but will not take it tomorrow. Wondering, if you've had a fet that didn't work, when did you get your period after stopping progesterone and estrogen?

Vit B/Folate Advice Needed Please
Ever since having my jabs in October I felt very ill initially and then I have carried on feeling unwell and so recently I did an advanced thyroid test with Medichecks and realised my thyroid was out of kilter so I've upped my NDT by 1/8 grain (knowing I had some wiggle room). My vitamins all took

Help Please With Thyroid & Vitamin Results.
Hiya! I'd be most grateful if the wise owls of this forum can shed some light on my results, especially the vitamin tests. I am pretty much constantly symptomatic even though my thyroid results seem pretty optimal for NDT use. I also have early onset menopausal osteoporosis, which is being managed.

Trying to interpret my results
Hi I was wondering if I could ask some advice regarding my latest results. I've just had bloods done so anticipating the usual conversation with my GP about my TSH being too low.... I've screen shot my results since 2015 basically as I've been tracking them as my TSH rarely changes, even with a reduction

Trial of eConsult service
My GP practice has recently launched the eConsult service where it said I could get the results of tests etc, so I tried it. I asked for the results from a recent blood test, and gave the date and time. The one that was supposed to be just vitamins. I had one email back saying the request would be

HRT, low white blood cell count & NDT
I have been having appointments with my GP to try and get an HRT prescription. She wanted a blood test doing first - I have been taking NDT for about 8 years (doing really well on it) and basically my GP didn't understand it, stopped calling me in for blood tests and I haven't been for years.

Ginkgo Trial (winter update)
The story so far. Taking 3 x 30mg Ginkgo during the lighter months one day a week resulted in a relief of my mild, variable T the following day. For 5 or so hours in the afternoon. I have now established that the same happens during the darker days but it takes 2 days for the effect to happen. I put

T3 (Cytomel): How would you fit it in these results? Or would you? And all the mistakes I have made on this journey
Latest results (overjoyed to be finally here) - TSH .74 (.32 to 4) T4 14 (9 to 19) T3 4.2 (2.6 to 5.8) I am on 262.5 mcg levothyroxine (Note: In 50s so 50×5 & 1/4 of a 50) I feel what I would deem pleasantly okay. Always have felt the best on NDT, but I needed so much I could no longer afford it. And

Why would my FT4 change?
Hi, My thyroid has been ok for some years now, I have generally felt quite well. A recent GP blood test flagged up that my FT4 is at the bottom of the range. I am currently taking 120mg of NDT, I was on 240mg for many years but was told I must reduce my dosage as my TSH was 0.05. I reduced the dosage

NDT Users - Split Dosing
If you use NDT and you dose it twice a day, how much of a gap do you leave between the two doses? And how do you determine how much to take in the first dose and how much in the second? I've tried once a day and it doesn't work for me. I run out of steam. I've tried three times a day, 8 hours apart

Intravenous Iron, oxidative stress and vitamin E and selenium
I have been reading about the possibility that some people may experience oxidative stress with intravenous iron therapy. I thought this article was interesting as it states that vitamin E and selenium are powerful antioxidants that can somewhat mitigate this problem. I would not suggest synthetic

still have stomach issues
hi, I went private regarding my thyroid nearly a year ago now. Before going to this private thyroid clinic I was on 50 mg of levothyroxine. I suffered from gastro problems, constant reflux, burning stomach, constipation. Also severe coldness, tiredness. After checking my levels the private doctor put

anyone used myovvii device ?
hello everyone, curious to find out if any of you have used the myovvii device that is promoted on instagram for period pain and endo pains? Apparently it sends signals to your brain to change where the pain is being detected. A little bit like acupuncture which I have also read about. I’m currently

Advice on labs, high RT3, high SBHG, low T
This is my first real post on this forum. I'd appreciate if experienced members could take a look at my labs and history and let me know what they think. I'm a 46-year-old male from Canada but living in France for the past 10 years. I've had deteriorating health issues for close to 5 years (likely longer

genetic tests for conversion issues etc
hi lovely forum users I’ve finally got an endo appointment via my doctor no date yet. I doubt they’ll smile on my taking ERFA but I’ve no intention of going back to Levo only as it worked less and less for me over the years. I’ve wondered if I have a T4 to T3 conversion issue and have found a blue horizon
