How long until T3 peaks. How long lasts?
Having the hardest time figuring out how long in between my doses I should wait? I'm on NDT. Concerned more w T3 than w T4. But if you have something to say about either, please let me know. Thank you. How long for T3 to peak and how long does it stay your system? 😌 please and I appreciate any knowledge

SlowDragon please comment on my situation if you're around.
Hi, I'm not able to get labs until Jan. 13, hopefully. This clinic is going under and everyone is struggling to be seen in this tiny community in the middle of nowhere. I am tired most of the time. However, I did walk the furthest today than I have in a month so maybe things are getting better

Asymmetrical Transport of Thyroxine Across Human Term Placenta
This new study https://pure.eur.nl/en/publications/asymmetrical-transport-of-thyroxine-across-human-term-placenta is behind a paywall. I have a copy, it’s not easy to follow but essentially says little T4 crosses the full term placenta from mother to baby but T4 rapidly crosses from baby to mother.

SIDE EFFECTS FROM HYPO MEDS
Anyone else out there who’s resistant to all the hypothyroid meds they’ve tried? Over the last year I’ve tried Synthroid, Synthroid with Cytomel, Erfa, Erfa with Synthroid, and compounded NDT - which is pretty much all we have available to us in Canada. They all increase my hypo symptoms and give

Natural Thyroid Med in France
Hello. I see a few old threads regarding this topic, so I thought I'd get on to find if there have been any changes. I moved to France from USA 8 months ago, assuming it would be easy (why?) to find a naturopath to refill my prescription for Armour. I haven't, and judging from what I see here, it's

Hypothyroidism & ADHD /meds
Hello, community! I’ve suffered from hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) since childhood, and after many years of poor response to Levothyroxine, successfully moved onto treatment with Natural Desiccated Thyroid almost ten years ago now. Switching to NDT was life-changing, and has really improved

Covid & dosing
Hi, I tested +ve for covid this morning. It's the first time I've had it. I've had 5 vacs. My temperature is high & I'm taking paracetamol for that.My question is, should I alter my T4/NDT dose? I haven't been ill at all since I started on thyroid meds in 2015. I wondered if I should increase, decrease

Suppressed TSH and getting optimum on NDT
I'm being treated by a private thyroid Dr for hypothyroid, I'm on NDT Armour and I've been slowly titrating for 12 months from zero treatment. I couldn't get treatment on the NHS. My latest results show TSH at 0.01. My T4 and T3 are the highest they've ever been and I feel much better than I did last

Could a member please explain the T3 feedback loop?
Hello, I have been on NDT since June of 2021. I am currently taking 175mg of compounded thyroid. About two hours after taking my thyroid capsule I often feel hot and sometimes a bit anxious ( like being overmedicated) but in the afternoon I am out of gas. My cortisol is high in the early morning, good

test results on 2 and 3/4 Thyrogold
This is my latest blood test which is good and bad. Happy that my vitamin levels apart from D are good (no supplements for 6 weeks prior) but my levels for T3 and TSH are bad the worst I’ve had since taking NDT. Yes it was done in the afternoon (15.40) but I was of the opinion that it needs to be 8-12

Source of NDT or T3?
Looking for some advice. I’ve been having hypothyroid symptoms for years, with FT3 at the very bottom end and often below range the few times I got the doctor to test it. Morning oral temp at 35.8-36.0C Only a couple of times did it approach 50% of range and that was using desiccated thyroid supplements

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

Menopaused. Would starting HRT mean reducing NDT? Has anyone experience of this please?
Hi Everyone, Still searching to be less housebound and energised. It's another thing to try before I throw in the towel. Any thoughts and experiences would be greatly appreciated ,as my TSH continues to decline out of range and T4 andT3 both low in NHS range. every best wish , G
