Considering Conception & Ideal Thyroid Levels
Hi all. I finally saw an endocrinologist and they suggested increasing thyroxine dose by 20% when doing an embryo transfer to ensure adequate thyroxine. I asked about FT3 and FT4 levels but they were only interested in TSH which didn’t make sense given it only signals thyroid production and isn’t a thyroid

blood tests
Had my bloods done this morning at my GPs, results already in which surprised me. Anyway I had an app with my doctor last week and he asked me why I was taking 75mcg for 2days and 100 mcg got the other 5 and I told him that the other gp was letting me adjust my doses myself to see how I fared, she prescribed

advice please
So I live in uk and for a year now my daughter age 14 has had various symptoms which come and go in severity but impact her life when bad. She is under paediatricians who were unconcerned about her low TSH and after discussion with paed with interest in endocrinology they wrote to gp and said no further

Hypothyroid symptoms but normal test results
Thank you in advance for any insight. These are my test results, sourced from a private company - Randox. I would be hugely grateful for any help in interpreting these or my symptoms. I have experienced severe weight gain - which NOTHING will shift including weight loss drugs. I have had a hormonal

How to raise nutrients up - Hypothyroid
This forum is fantastic - have learned so much in 24 hours! Thank you all who have helped so far. So with a possible Ord's Hashimoto issue, likely under-medicated levothyroxine (my starting dose should have been 90mg for my weight and symptoms, not 25mg to 50mg which is the guidance for over 65 age

Sinus issues & thyroid
Hi, my sinuses have flared up for no reason. I saw this could be linked to the thyroid. Anyone had this? Also, I’m on 50mg of Levothyroxine and just had my blood results back…. TSH 3.31 (that’s all they checked) and I’m told everything is normal and there’s no further action. However I’m not feeling

TSH is 5.2 for FET cycle any help? Or advice?
hi all I'm on a lot of estrogen 5 x a day vaginally and orally and my tsh is elevated. I have repeated this but not holding out hope. My transfer is due to be on Friday so looks like it may be cancelled. Any advice or one who has experienced this? What did the clinic do?

Feeling lost and confused
I'm not sure what I'm hoping to gain from this post other than to maybe speak to people who understand what this is like. So far I manage pain with a tens machine and painkillers but things are getting worse. I have pain most days, it's worse after sex and I'm now spotting after sex. A few months

Low t3 with high t4, graves.
I'm not sure what's happening. I've had one episode of toxic nodule hyperthyroidism back in 2015, hemithyroidectomy in 2018. Then I got graves (unrelated apparently) in 2022. My t4 was 63, my t3 was 30! so was on carb until June 2023. I've not been on any meds since. Following my thyroid through private

Hi does anyone use a Tens machine for Refractory/Unstable Angina? I’m looking online and it’s advising not to but I’m sure I’ve seen that other people do use it
