Oestrogen levels
I know this is a menopause question but I can’t find the answer on other forums. I have underactive thyroid and having tests to see if symptoms are thyroid or hrt/menopause The test for Oestrogen level shows 337 range refers to follicle/luteal phase which isn’t relevant as it’s def menopause Is 337

Levothyroxine brands
Can anyone advise on a brand of levo for sensitive people. I know what suits one might not suit another! In May 2022 I had my thyroid removed after years being overactive with goitre on Carbimazole. At one point my weight dropped to 50kgs and it took many months before it returned to within normal

Guys, can someone DM me where do you get thyroid-s from please. I used to take NP thyoid but the prices are on crack right now! Ridiculous! Need to get supply but don’t want to send money to any dodgy shops. Thanks.

Advice needed on thyroxine management
I am hoping someone can advise me about my thyroxine dose. Here's a little background: In September 2023, I was underweight and having trouble gaining weight and suffering from anxiety. I had been on 75mcg of levothyroxine daily for an underactive thyroid. I had recently developed pins and needles

Covid booster and thyroid blood test
I am due to get my annual thyroid blood test in October. Have just realised that I get my autumn Covid booster the day before. Is it likely to have any effect on the test results?

Thyroid atrophy????
Hello, Thanks to those who have given me guidance previously. is anyone able to tell me the size a thyroid usually is in a woman? I’ve read each lobe should be around 4cms. I recently had a scan privately and my lobes measure 8x7 and 8x5mm respectively. To me this is extremely small and it appears

Advice before speaking to GP
Hi Everyone I am asking for advice before I speak to my GP. All advice gratefully received. I know when I posted my last results on here people said my high cholesterol was possibly due to my Thyroid levels. My TSH was 2.5 (range 0.27-4.2) which people here said was too high as I’m on Levothyroxine

TSH slowly creeping back up.
I’ve been here before (the forum) but lost all my logon details so I’ve re-registered. I’m hitting the usual brick wall with my GP, so I’ll try once more before I do something I’m unhappy about,but I’m getting desperate. Briefly, my TSH is slowly increasing. By which I mean that my most recent results

How to prepare for my thyroid test?
Hi all, I’m on the following routine and wondered what I should do with my thyroid medication the day before the test: First dose: 3am - 125mcg Levo, 5mcg - T3 Second dose: 11am - 2.5mcg T3 I will do the test around 8am ensuring I’ve only had water. So should I NOT take the 11am T3 dose the day

Energy levels are often low and she struggles with aching limbs and insomnia. Her growth hormones are

Undermedicated thyroid symptoms could be mistaken for Parkinsons?
Please indicate if you think this may be better over in Parkinson Forum... or as well as! After being stable for a good few years, (thanks to the great people on this forum) I managed to drop the ball with my thyroid and have spent the last year getting back on track. My profile shows the details

So very grateful for Thyroid UK
I just have to express my gratitude to this forum and the admins who give of their time to help us who are or have been floundering with NHS input (or lack of input+even dismissiveness of our thyroid journey) with regard to our thyroid and other connected issues. My son will be 48 this year and that’

Update on my thyroid medication 🤦♀️
Hi everyone ❤️ I posted some weeks ago about my appointment with an endocrinologist on Dec 27th, who just stopped my T3 prescription and put me back on T4 levothyroxin to which in her own report she stated... This lady is intolorent to both T4 and T3, therefore I recommend she goes back on T4 levothyroxin
