On 8th April 2024 I had a blood test as I was feeling tired and generally under par, tested my TSH 3.7 ( 0.27-4.2) T4 12.6 (12-22) so my dr increased my Levothyroxin to 75mcg. I felt a little bit better but had another blood test on 5th June and my result was TSH 3.01 and my T4 13.7 I'm feeling tired

3 months post-partum - advice on these results?
I was diagnosed with hypo right before I found out I was pregnant last August. Levo was awful for me, so I switched to NDT and have done well on it. Throughout pregnancy, my TSH was optimal and T3 was good too but T4 was difficult to get optimal. I'm on 180mcg of NDT, split 90/90 morning and night

IVF stims cycle - do I have to wait for Stork?
Hi everyone, I appreciate this is a pretty niche question, but I'm throwing it out there on the off-chance someone here has been through similar. As a bit of backstory, I had a failed stims cycle in Feb and the plan with my clinic has always been to do my next cycle in June. I've had various delays

Selenium Supplementation in Patients with Hashimoto Thyroiditis
I found this paper and thought I'll share. This is for patients with hashis, who are not yet on thyroid hormone replacement. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38243784/

? T3 and TSH
So, I've written before, and I started taking only T3. At about 100-125mcg per day all at once in the morning (bc my principal concern is my immune system. Also energy, etc). I went to the ER the other day bc of a bad reaction to Paxlovid, I had presumed covid (multiple close contacts, ie, my kids

Blood test results
Hi,I started levothyroxine (25mcg) approx 6 weeks ago after diagnosis. Bloods retested today and TSH is 5.1. Previous results were 7 and 8.I have an appointment with the GP this week and presume they will want to increase the dose. Pathology investigation report on the blood test suggests undertreatment

HRT FET - Day of transfer?
Hi everyone and thanks for the lovely support in this group - it’s been a comfort reading all the previous posts. I’m doing my first HRT FET, and just wondering around what day of the cycle people’s transfers were? My plan says to take oestrogen from day 1, then have a scan on day 8, and that’s it

Latest blood tests - low T3
What to do next? Advice welcome please 🙏 Hi all, I 've been on 75 mcg levo for about 9 weeks. Results since January show conversion mostly dropping as I increase Levo. I just retested, after waiting a few weeks to see if symptoms settled. Test results in photo. Endo could see conversion wasn't good

Thyroid feels sore but I am on my normal amount despite my last TSH being 0.02.
Recently my blood test showed TSH 0.02 with normal T4 and T3. The doctor tried to drop my medication but I stood my ground. However I have developed sore thyroid over the last few days. Could it be too much levothyroxine as the doctor said.

Advice please!
Hi, I am feeling rather unwell, but my blood tests are 'ok' so just wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I'm also very down in the dumps about it. I had Hashimotos 25 years ago, and after a long and difficult fight, managed to get my dose of Levothyroxine to 150/175mcg alternate days. Twice when

Low TSH & Low T4
Can anyone help please? I was recently on 75mcg T4 and 20mcg of T3 but still felt low energy, dry skin, hair falling out, low mood etc. Doctor did a TSH and T4 test and then phoned me to reduce my T4 to 50mcg. My TSH was 0.023 and my T4 was 8.2. The reduction of T4 meds made me very ill, I crashed

Latest test results
My latest Thyroid results were: TSH 0.05, up from 0.0006; T3 3.2, down from 5.1; T4 8.1, down from 12.1 Not surprising, when you take into account that I was on 3.5 grains of NDT and this was replaced with just 100mcg Levothyroxine and 20mcg Liothyroxine. My dossages have been increased to 150mcg Levo
