New and could use some advice
I'm new and not yet diagnosed. I have a call with the GP on Friday, but to be honest I've not had the best service from my GP unless I go in well informed. I'm mainly worried about a variation in TSH in a short time. I have a family history of hypothyroidism and currently take no medication what so

Help with results appreciated
Hi everyone, It's been a while since I had full TFTs etc so I was surprised to see some of the results, especially compared to last time (2020). The TSH is lower than in 2020 (when it was 3.7), the Free T4 is slightly higher (16.2 in 2020), but the Free T3 is lower than it was (5.24). My B12 results

Initial consultation
Hello!My partner and I have been trying for a baby for over 2 years, and never been pregnant. We paid for private tests last year which showed he has low sperm motility. All tests for myself came back normal, although AMH low end of normal ( quite worried it's dropped a fair bit since the test) We finally

Thyroid Functions
Hello,I have been investigating the above recently via this forum and elsewhere. It concerns me that I take two medications that have an effect on Levothyroxine. Omeprazole 20mg daily, taken before bed and Propranolol 30mg taken twice daily usually before breakfast and before bed. Levothyroxine, 200mcg

Blue Horizon Thyroid Genetic Test results
Afternoon, My Blue Horizon Thyroid Genetic Panel results have arrived after a long wait and I’d appreciate some help understanding them. I undertook the test to check my DIO1 and DIO2 status, both of which appear ‘normal’ (no inherited defects). However, three variants are flagged up in either red

So I decided to check my blood before starting a trail of 50mcg of Levothyroxine. I tested at 6.20 am compared to my usual later time of 10am. I’m confused because the morning before I ended up in A&E from taking too many pain killers and they tested my blood around the same time. My results are greatly

Research for effects of insufficient Levo starting dose
Hi Quick recap: Endo started me on 25 mcg of Levo following an ultrasound showing a Hashi thyroid and increasing TSH. It has been a week now and I feel ghastly. I had zero expectations of feeling better quickly, but definitely didn’t think I would be dosing off during meetings or feeling unsafe to

Adenomyosis, should I have hysterectomy?
The short version is that I have adenomyosis. I've always had heavy periods with period pains that make my thighs numb and require prescription painkillers. At the age of 44 I had some symptoms of perimenopause and tried HRT. After two years I came off and that seems to have triggered a strong reaction

Thyroid ranges for teen
Does anyone know if thyroid ranges are the same for kids/under 18s as for adults? I've got a GP appt in a couple of weeks to discuss 14 year old (with acute anxiety) results. I've only got the TSH result, and it's come back normal at 0.87 (levels 0.51-4.3). Or am I safe to assume those would be

T3 and TSH
I have my appointment with the endo this afternoon. I have read that if you’re on T3 and T4, your TSH should be within the normal range. my T3 was 5.7 (with 6.8 being the top of the range) and my T4 was 21.3 (with 22 being the top of the range). My TSH is suppressed. Please can someone tell me if

hives after starting levothyroxine
I’ve been on 25mg of levothyroxine since 1st march. My TSH level was 5.38 and for fertility reasons I needed it to be 2.5. Levothyroxine has done the trick and I’m now 2.45. I have recently developed a raised rash all over my body that is so itchy. Does anyone have any experience of this or solutions
