Levo increase or not?
Hi Everyone! My most recent TSH and T4 bloods (28/05) showed: TSH - 1.22 T4 - 11.8 I am on 50mcg of levothyroxine. Started 25 for 2 months, then increase to 50 for the past month. I have also been supplementing as directed by advice on here, including addressing my iron deficiency. I haven't retested

I need facts on nutrition, vitamins and supplements.
I am a 5 year survivor, currently in recurrence with a rising PSA. Doc has started me on Lupron and Enzalutamide. I’m interested in learning factual info on the effects of diet, nutrition, vitamins and supplements on PCa. I’ve read tons of theories. Where are the clinical reports? Thanks!

Best diet and supplementation guide for hypothyroidism?
Is there a really simple list of vitamins (and best times of day to take them) and a list of foods to avoid when starting out of levothyroxine? I have such brain fog that I'm struggling to compile a plan for myself. I really need to lose the weight I've recently piled on too. Also I have ADHD so I struggle

B12 and vit D is a work in progress. Ferritin is edging out of optimal towards high end, not sure what this

Need advice on these blood test results - wondering if it might be hypo, but Dr's all say numbers are fine.
I have just stumbled upon this site, and am hoping that you knowledgeable people can help me out.
The short story:
I'm undiagnosed, never been on any thyroid hormones. Feeling unwell for over 2 years - fatigue/tiredness, weight gain, hair loss (decreased hair density on scalp), loss of outer third

A little update
Hi all, I just thought I'd give a little update as I've not posted here in about a year and just possibly my experience may be of interest. I am not in ANY way invalidating anyone else's condition or treatment, this is just my story. For years I have struggled with low mood, lacking 'oomph' in life.

Update on my partner
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone. We are 4 weeks into EOD injections a local pharmacist showed me how to inject my partner and iv been doing them for him. Originally using panpharma but it was sold out so have just started with pascoe 1500. Much easier to draw up and inject and apparently no
