Re WP, Westhroid,and Nature Throid excipients.
If WP has the least excipients (only 2 i believe) why are the other two from the same company usable and often compatable if we are all aiming to put the nearest to pure in our bodies ? My apologies if i am being totally stupid. All good wishes to all. G.

Looking for advice on how and when to raise dose?
Hello again everyone, I've decided to self-medicate. I'm being careful, slow, and will be taking blood tests every couple of months to track Ft4 and Ft3 as well as tsh. My last tests (a month ago) were: TSH: ~2 Ft4: 12.0 (12.2-22) Ft3: 3.1 (3.1-6.8) I bought Nature Throid, which states that each grain

Why does ferritin have to be high for NDT but not for Thyroxine?
I have been on Thyroxine for years but want to try Nature Throid, as I think it might be better for me, as it contains calcitonin. However, I have noticed that lots of people here suggest getting Ferritin levels at least 70 before starting. I have low Ferritin, and just below mid B12. If I'm already

2 Many Q's! NDT or Just T3?
Hi Everyone, Well its another Friday night at home... I have a few questions so I thought I would write it all in one post. Firstly, I was diagnosed as Hypo back in Feb, but have been symptomatic for around 5 years. My GP told me to just eat less and exercise more and that I had IBS. I knew that was

ADVICE SINCE STARTING NATURE-THROID 7 DAYS AGO. SHOULD I UP THE DOSE?
I switched from 100mcg Levo to 1 grain of Nature-Throid 7 days ago and within a few days I noticed the difference for the better. After a week however, I'm beginning to tire out from mid morning onwards (I take my dose on waking). Is it too early to up by half a grain? I'm thinking that as my Total

Nature-throid suppliers
Can those of you who purchase Nature-throid online without a prescription please PM me with the details of your suppliers, I would like to compare prices and delivery costs. I am especially interested in suppliers outside the USA, if there are any. Many thanks in advance

Going hyper or over replaced easily?
After feeling a bit hypo in April, I had tests which showed low thyroxine raised antibodies - posted above. I raised my dose a little but I'm struggling to maintain even a low dose, three quarter grain, of desiccated thyroid replacement (have been on Nature Throid for about two years) I came off replacement

Bloods - decrease or stick ?
Good afternoon, thyroid homies. Hope all's good with you this typically cloud ridden BH Monday So... I feel well. That's the most important thing I guess. I had my NHS bloods done - usually they take a week but they have flown into my patient access records ( could that be because they took, at my

Nature-Throid and Supplements Interaction
Hi Everyone, I hope someone out there can clarify as I am a little confused! I am now finally on NDT; half a grain in the am and half in the afternoon. I know not to eat for 2 hours either side but what about supplements? I am on a long list of supplements and I am worried they will interfere with the

Started Nature-throid
I started taking Nature-throid on 30th April. I was on 50mcg of levothyroxine and 10mcg of Liothyronine and my T4 was low. Felt really fatigued and Endo wanted me to up Levo to 75mcg. Every time I up Levo it makes me feel worse. I ordered Nature-throid and started with 1/2 grain + 10mcg of liothyronine

Keep at it! Feeling healthy again can be done.
First off, just a quick note that I really appreciate this site. I live in the U.S. and struggled for several years before finding out that Hashimoto's even existed. Here too, the TPO antibody is not part of our screening protocol for the thyroid. It was only after my TSH was borderline, and my female

a question to those of you who have successfully recovered from adrenal fatigue
Two weeks ago, I ended up with a bad infection which turned out to be a

throat
. I was put on antibiotics, and then developed a nasty cold from which I am still not fully recovered.
