Can I order 2 months worth of Levothyroxine?
Good evening, I order my meds monthly- does anyone know if we can order 2- 3 months worth at a time or does it have to be monthly. Just trying to plan a trip abroad and don’t want to run out of meds. Many thanks in advance Moira

Increased thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) as a possible risk factor for atherosclerosis in subclinical hypothyroidism.
Have to admit, it is quite hard to read and I have not managed the entirety yet! But it does appear to read that even subclinical hypothyroidism might be important in itself - due to the increased TSH. [i]

Why does the British Thyroid Foundation not recommend T3 for Hypothyroidism?
I was gathering information about T4, T3 and thyroid in general, when I came across a page on the BTF site that says treating hypothyroidism with T3 is NOT recommended and that treating it with T4 alone has better results. I was a little bit surprised by this statement and wondered what their thinking

Weight Loss Advice
I know this is a topic that drives us all mad lol but any advice is welcome.I was a long distance runner before I had my 5th child and then 11 months later diagnosed with Hasimotos. I gained 3 stone after the pregnancy before diagnosis. I have lost 2 stone but this last stone does not shift no matter

would I be able to stop Levo again with no ill effects?
hi all, I have just started 75mcg of Levo. I have gained weight since having half my thyroid removed, and have developed reactive hypoglycaemia and I suffer from recurrent sports injuries which don’t heal quickly, but don’t have other hypothyroid symptoms, in spite of having Hashimotos. if Levo

medichecks results different from GP
I did a home test back in. March in order to get some information other than the GP test who wanted to reduce my Levo and put me on Statins. I take 100mcg daily and feel well on this dosage, when I was on 75mcg, I felt lethargic and not myself. The new results are CRP HS. 1.510 mg/L. (Range < 3

I want to understand what happened to me.
I stopped taking levothyroxine for a month because I wasn’t feeling any improvement at all. Then, I went back on it with a high dose of 100 mcg and felt a quick improvement. I had a lot of energy, and the brain fog disappeared. But, this improvement only lasted for 24 hours. I then increased the dose

Adrenal support - early days of T3
Hi I have recently started on Liothyronine - followed advice to start slowly and all seems to be going well. I am also on very regular B12 injections. I have a question about supporting adrenal glands. I had (may still have…) low morning cortisol, was given a Short Synacthen test which I passed but

My path to combination therapy
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 25 years ago, in my mid-thirties. For almost 20 years, I took only Levothyroxine. I realise now that I was probably depressed for the whole period. Back in 2016, I decided to quit drinking alcohol. I wasn't an alcoholic, but I was drinking every day, and sometimes

When to take Levothyroxine prior to bloods?
morning all - I’d really appreciate some advice please. My blood tests are at 2.40pm one day next week and I usually take my tablets about 3-4am. (2.40pm was Earliest appointment I could get). When would it be best to take it prior to testing? It seems maybe too long to miss it until after the bloods
