Stopping Block and Replace
After 8 long years I have decided to try stopping BR ( 5mg. Carbimazole and 75 mcg. Levo ) to check for remission. Just come back from GP appoint. that unexpectedly went well ( usually try and avoid them for thyroid issues) I chose a GP trainer hoping he might know a bit more about AITD. Receptionist

Armour Thyroid produced exclusively in USA?
I spoke with Roseway clinic in London who said they get their Armour Thyroid from Canada. I thought it was exclusively manufactured in USA. I came across a Canadian pharmacy called Forest who say they supply Armour Thyroid. Is it identical to Armour Thyroid from USA? Any advice will be greatly appreciated

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

ERFA with added iodine
Hiya.I have recently sourced a batch of ERFA via a private pharmacy, but after reading the fine print on the bottle, I have noticed it also contains 0.2 % of iodine. I thought this would be counterproductive, as iodine supplementation is not recommended with hypothyroidism? I am now concerned about

Can anyone recommend an online doctor. I am looking to get a prescription for NDT
I used to see a doctor privately, who had my blood tested every year and prescribed NDT to me, but he has retired and I am somewhat lost. My GP is prescribing levothyroxine, but I don’t really feel well, ever. I understand you can now have a blood test and a doctor who will read it and write you

NEW NDT ADTHYZA
I am not sure if anyone has heard of the latest NDT. It is free of the following, Gluten, Lactose, Corn, Dyes, and Latex. The main drawback is the fact that it contains, guess what, Mannitol.

thy3f thyroid nodules on either side - doctors recommend total thyroidectomy
hi there I was recently diagnosed with 2 thy3f nodules on either side of my thyroid. Thy3f is an indeterminate result (25%malignancy 75% benign). I have no symptoms recently had a baby, breastfeeding, busy mom of 3 on no medication. Has anyone elected watch and wait tactic instead of thyroidectomy?
