Supplement timings with Levo
Hi all, Could anyone recommend supplement timings for me? I am getting confused with what conflicts with what. I take my Levo between 6 and 7am, and do not want to move it to taking it at night for various reasons. Breakfast 7am to 8am. I am taking; Iron B complex Selenium Magnesium Vit D Berberine

latest bloods
I’m on a journey with t3 it’s taking a while. Latest bloods reflect 15mcg taken in one dose and 50mcg levothyroxine I think I need to increase levo but on 75 I was slightly over medicated I felt. A reply on here suggested 62.5mcg as middle road which makes sense to me but pills are tiny and crumbly

Was hoping for some advice please
Didn't really receive any advice from my previous post https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/151062372/help-please After dropping from 125mcg Levo to 100mcg and retesting after 9 weeks, my T4, very surprisingly, is still quite high in range and I think I still feel overmedicated. As with last

Levothyroxine dosing
HelloI have hashimotos hypothyroidism. I was just wondering if it is normal for my TSH and antibodies to keep going up until correct dose is achieved or should I still see it coming down with each dose change? Thank you 😊
