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?

NEED SOME ADVICE
This is what I’m doing, trying to wean off
Synthroid
& cytomel to transition to NDT. I was on
Synthroid
100+5cytomel. I started by dropping the cytomel and taking 87.5
Synthroid
, adding 30 mg thyroid. Stayed on that for two weeks, then 75 mcg
Synthroid
+ 45mg thyroid.

Levothyroxine
I’ve discovered that
Synthroid
(brand) levothyroxine has trace amounts of gluten (informed through research). Makes me Ill every time. The only brand that I know for certain that doesn’t is made by Mylan.

Why is t3 low while tsh is also low?
My tsh has continually been dropping over the past couple years, but the last year it has been dropping quicker even with lowering my
synthroid
dose every two months or so. I have had Hashimotos hypothyroidism since I was around 10 and have never been on such a low dose.

Hashimotos, new to taking meds, helpless jitters, indecision with no direction here
I could try the 15 pills of
Synthroid
t4 only I have left, as I never gave t4 only a bigger chance. The Levo/
synthroid
fillers; I'm afraid to try again, if I may not recover. But my dose was so low. Who can remember how bad it was or not.?

How to deal with different brands of generic synthroid?
My levo will not be sold anymore in Pharmacies around me. They changed manufacturer. Scared! How have you managed that situation? Thank you in advance.

Zeroing in on optimal dose of Synthroid/Cytomel combination.
Current dose: 112 mcg
Synthroid
& 20 mcg Cytomel. Background is that I had a full thyroidectomy due to papillary thyroid cancer in 2004.

A Thyroid Mess
The
Synthroid
, I believe, was Levothroid not
Synthroid
, I now believe but, the
Synthroid
, although ‘stronger” (I could feel it) than the Levothrox-ine serum I’m now taking, is not strong enough to make much difference because it’s T4, an inactive hormone.
