Am I a poor converter?
I've just had my latest blood test results after starting 50mg Levothyroxine 6 weeks ago:TSH 1.65 (0.27-4.2) FT4 15.9 (12-22) 39% through range FT3 3.4 (3.1-6.8) 8% through range FT4:FT3 ratio is therefore 4.7. Just before starting Levothyroxine, my results were: TSH 5.88 FT4 12 FT3 3.44 FT4:FT3

Doing ok, o ignorance is bliss
Hello brothers. In 12 months of ADT vacatión (with no medication) my PSA has risen slowly but steadily, from . 2 to .9. Not sure weather to feel good or worry. Any advice?

Short of breath
On Orgovyx, Nubeqa and Megace for last three months. Completing 27 of 27 fractions of radiation tomorrow. I am short of breath most of the time. A walk up a flight of stairs leaves me gasping. I continue to workout including running (slower and shorter since radiation started), hiking and weights

Converting NDT and T3 to combo
I am currently on 20 mcg T3 and 150 mcg Thyroid—S daily. I have always bought my own medication as I didn't think I would manage to get T3 on NHS. I have just received a message to say they will give it to me so I'm over the moon. They also want me to ditch the Thyroid-S and replace with 100mcg Levo.

High TSH on high NDT dose
Hey, I'm feeling so confused. Any advice appreciated! I have used Thyrogold (NDT) to successfully treat my underactive thyroid (Hypothyroid with Hashimotos) for the last few years. Occasionally my dose needs altering slightly but generally it has remained stable on this medication. I am currently taking

Frustrated at endo's obsession with TSH when other results point in the opposite direction
I hope this isn't going to take too long to explain. And this is really a frustrated rant about the obsession with TSH. I went to see a private endo, as my hypo symptoms had not resolved on a daily dose of 150mcg T4 and a split dose of 40mcg T3, given to me by an NHS endo who was prepared to accept

If immediately stopping after two years taking Orgovyx how long before testosterone begins to rise?
I’ve heard that testosterone returns quicker if using Orgovyx compared to Lupron. But I also heard that the longer on any ADT the longer the recovery. Or maybe testosterone never recovers? What do you guys think question

Just had Psma-pet scan... Confused
My initial Axium pet scan nearly 2 years ago showed "innumerable" mets throughout musculoskeletal system, from head to knees... Understandably, my PSA at the time was 480. After 1 year on ADT and 8 months of Xtandi another Axium showed mets in calvarial region (skull), neck and clavicle no longer present

Finding Support Groups
I am 84 and diagnosed with PCa in 2014. I had a multi-specialty work up Sibley Hospital in Washington DC (Johns Hopkins staffed clinic). No mets found. I was given 1 option, External beam; 70 Gray treatment went smoothly with no SE. I was given one injection of Lupron prior to the radiation. PSA

Is this a "normal" reaction to NDT?
Hi All, I'm trying to take NDT instead of levo, on which I was for around 20 years before, mostly on 75 mcg. My TSH went out of balance back in October 2022 and between then and now it's been a massive struggle. I increase my T4 slightly (even by 12,5 mcg) and get heart palpitations (heart was checked

Regulolix [Orgovyx]
I am looking for the experiences of those that are taking Regulolix [Orgovyx) with either, Xtandi , Erleada or Daralutamide. My Dr claims that Regulolix doesn't " play well with other ADT orals-guess of the "lutamide family " I listed above. I heard there are those that are taking Rugulolix with these

I want to try SARM's-Yes or No?
currently taking Nubeqa and Orgovyx and hate the sarcopenia I'm experiencing. I asked my MO about BAT and I've had two cycles of getting a month off ADT and receiving an injection of testosterone the month off of ADT before restarting ADT. I've read some positive reviews on this site about Ostarine

I was told by endo I could get t3 if I did 6 weeks on levo to show I don't convert properly. I did this on 175 levo but my t4 was rising out of range and t3 not in the highest range. I've been on ndt and t3 but always self sorced. But I was hoping to get t3 on percripton. The gp has said I now have to

Dodged Another Bullet
I was on Eligard for two years and the hormone treatment was ended in October 2022. On July 3rd 2023 I had a minor heart attack. Fortunately I recognized the symptoms straight away and went directly to the ER. I had a >90% blockage in my right coronary artery, and ended up with one stent in the artery

eGFR down 14% since starting ADT
I just noticed that my estimated GFR which measures kidney health is down from 89 in October to 77 in June 2023. In October I started Lupron. Does Lupron impact kidney health? This is something I want to keep track off. Mark
