Will TSH test be accurate if just starting Progesterone 100 mg?
My TSH went from 1.48 to 3.46 so my
Synthroid
was upped from 50 mcg to 75 mcg. I am going for another blood test to see what my levels are after 6 weeks of being on 75 mcg. However, my functional dr. prescribed 100 mg. of progesterone to help me with sleep issues (I'm 63).

Feeling Hyper-Need Help With Results Please
My endo finally agreed to put me on NP Thyroid and currently on 120 mg but, now my TSH keeps going down and my T4 and T3 are not really at an optimal range so, she is wanting to change me to
synthroid
again or reduce my dosage.

Going Back On Naturethroid
Once the back order started, I switched back to
synthroid
, which was not as good. I'm going back on Naturethroid after about 7 weeks but am wondering if I can just resume the dose I had been on ( for about two years) or if I should gradually raise it again.

Thyroid removed
I was previously on
Synthroid
100mg for the past 24 years to keep my non toxic multi modular goiter for producing hormones. Now my doctor increased my
Synthroid
to 125mg and may raise it again in a few months to 137mg if my numbers change.

Information From Dr Lowe re Thyroid Gland Removal
Afterward, it took six months of complaining to my doctor about weight gain and feeling awful before he prescribed
Synthroid
. Ive been on it now for over 20 years. After gaining a lot more weight and feeling weaker and worse, I finally wised up and got a new doctor.
