How are you managing your thyroid health?
I've been off line for a while. just a quick update, after 10 years of using
synthroid
, My doctor finally change my med to Armour Thyroid 150mcg. I have reach a point in my life, to figure things out myself.

Hashimotos, in range. Should I take 25mcg Levoxyl?
A new GP says he will try me in 25mcg Levoxyl today, not
Synthroid
or levothyroxine. eople on here said for me to start at least 50mcg. Doc wants to go methodically slow because of antibodies, and because of the jitters I got on thyroid medication I self-took.

Branded Levothyroxine Bests Generic for Hypothyroidism
Will caveat that the research was commissioned by the manufacturer of
Synthroid
so clearly a vested interest and in no way independent. Would be intrigued if there was a similar analysis of the UK brands of Levo to compare their efficacy.

Update on my other post :Hashimoto's in range, now taking Levoxyl 25/50mcg. (Now having reactions?)
I already had this- self-trying T4T3 20/4 combo, T3 only or
Synthroid
in Dec. (Trying to stick to this T4 only. But slow release T3 bothered me too on a short trial.

Back on levothyroxine, dose upped
Hi, I've had hypo for a while now and felt a bit better before when I was taking 125mcg
synthroid
. However my GP got scared back then that the TSH was too low and reduced my dose to 75. Of course this made me feel terrible again.

So fed up!
I have been on
Synthroid
since the beginning alternating doses as required - but I am exhausted! The specialists say my numbers are 'normal' even though I have every symptom of hypothyroid and I am so fed up with this existence!

DHEA/Cortisol Ratio is Low
My ACTH has been elevated for the past 6 months and it has thrown me off w/thyroid meds (
Synthroid
). I was on 75, then on 50, now on 62.5 consistently for 8+ weeks. I really don't know what's happening with the ACTH.

Explain
Can somehow explain to me how if put on too low of a dose of
synthroid
(T4) it can actually make hypo symptoms worse? I would think that maybe a too low dose would leave it unchanged, but how would too little of a T4 dose make you feel worse?

PLEASE help solve my thyroid mystery
I have been slowly reducing my
Synthroid
dose since being pregnant a year ago. And 8 weeks after each .25mcg decrease (started at .75mcg) So each time I decrease my
Synthroid
, my levels stay the same.

Pituitary issues and Hashimotos? Low t3, low tsh, and low estradiol
Endo keeps lowering my
Synthroid
because of my low tsh, but this just makes my t3 even lower. Endo says that she’s concerned about giving me t3 medicine in addition to my
synthroid
because of my low tsh and doesn’t want to cause a thyroid storm.

Hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's but severely underweight.
I will start taking
synthroid
again and I'm afraid that will make me lose more weight. Is it possible that an underactive thyroid can make you too thin instead of gaining weight?

Weaning off Synthroid
My doctor has me slowly weaning off of my
synthroid
since I had my baby. I am down to .25mcg and feeling fine. Do you think taking away the .25mcg will make me feel terrible, or is .25mcg such a low dose I shouldn’t be able to really tell a difference?
