I wonder if it is linked to the introduction of testosterone, I started hrt

Possible underactive thyroid?
Hi everyone, I'm new here and would love some advice from people who actually know what they're talking about as I currently feel like I'm being fobbed off by everyone! I am 42 years old, and have struggled with symptoms that I have always considered to be thyroid related but every NHS test came back

TSH level increase after total thyroidectomy(8 years ago)
I am a 28-year-old man (90 kg). I had a total thyroidectomy 8 years ago due to papillary carcinoma. Recently, I had a knee surgery and during a subsequent blood test, my TSH level was checked and found to be 4.5. However, I had taken my medication (euthyrox 150mg) on the morning of this blood test. Therefore

I started on cobalamin injections pre Covid then when lockdown arrived was put on Tablet form which remained until last July when a retired Doctor in our practice noticed I’d been requesting to be given B12 injections once more. I’d gone for a different reason but I felt so well by next day it convinced

Adding Vitamin K to D3 - K, K1, K2, Mk, etc?
I want to add K to my D and don’t know the specifics or dosing. I have a stockpile of about 6-12 months of D3 due to an auto-Amazon order and previously sharing the D with family. I take one a day - D3 at 2500 iu (62.5 mcgs). What specifically can I add to get the right k? K, k1, k2, what about mk7

Could this be the beginning of something good for B12 in the UK ?
https://www.ukri.org/who-we-are/how-we-are-doing/research-outcomes-and-impact/bbsrc/better-b12-safer-and-sustainable-production/ Am imagining the day when we can purchase B12 phials in our local pharmacies ? Or will Big Pharma make a move ? Whilst living in Crete for 15 years I was able to buy 3 phials

Someone posted that some of us inject 2 to 3 times a day. I was going to comment some of us inject 4 times a day but never found that comment again. I personally did trials of 1.2,3,4 times a day.

Vitamin K Advice
I am running out of K2 capsules. I started with Vitabay drops, then Vitabay Tablets. Both were discontinued, so I moved on to Vegavero capsules. Now they seem to be unavailable. I was told I needed the all trans form (can't remember what that means!). Can anyone recommend anything with not too many
