Is there any link between vaginal dryness and hashimotos
I have struggled with vaginal dryness, dry eyes and dry nasal area for a few years. I drink plenty so it's not dehydration. My doctor put it down to low estrogen and I am currently using vagifem which has helped most of the time. My question is........ Is there a link between hashimotos and these symptoms

Medichecks advice
Hello, I am planning to do a full thyroid and vitamin test with Medichecks. Firstly, is there a discount for Thyroid UK members please, and if so, how do I get it? Also, I think members of this forum might have some advice on when to do the test. Thank you for your support in advance.

Armor for Several Years. A Change To Happen. Experiences Needed.
Hi Community. I have been on Armour Thyroid for several years now. I changed insurance and chose a high deductible, and I think that is why it's no longer covered. Is anyone using the below meds and what has your experience been? Armour was great for me, has anyone had to switch that loved Armour and

Confused
Just had a message from my GP surgery and as my TSH is 0.13 they want to lower my dose from 75 to 50. What do I do?

antibodies
hi. Just received these private results. I know I have a goitre and am on carbimazole 5mg x3 a week. Been referred to an endocrinologist. Does it mean that I have to have my thyroid removed if carbimazole has stopped working. I feel exhausted and I have pressure behind my eyes. Thank you.

Dosage question.
I was diagnosed with Graves and overactive thyroid forty four years ago. I had a thyroidectomy and started on synthetic thyroid hormone therapy. I’m 69 now and take 100 mcg of Levothyroxine daily, my TSH is 0.291, low. What dose should I be taking?

Could I actually have a thyroid issue? Thyroid tests seem fine. Confused, please help
Hi everyone, I’m seeing a functional doctor in Brazil (online, so there’s some limitation) and also working with a few traditional medicine doctors in the UK. I became an useless person over the last year, I went from bright and lively to stupid, fat, insomnia ridden, gold-fish memory, paper thin

TSH is now 0.13 is this ok?
Hey there, Serum TSH level: 0.13 mIU/L Normal range: 0.35 to 4.94 After nearly a year of fighting with my GP over meds amounts and optimal ranges, my TSH is finally below 1 after initially being 8-9. I do feel markedly better at times but still have bad days perhaps due to hashimotos and not

Cancerous thyroid nodules. Are they painful sometimes?
Id be really grateful for thoughts on this please. I'm awaiting surgery on a nodule that's suspicious for follicular cancer but obviously as we know, they can't be certain until its taken out. What i want to know is, has anyone had a painful nodule that can be really sore consistently (8 months now
