No pregnancy symptoms success? 6+5
Hi all... Just wondering if there are any success stories for little to no pregnancy symptoms? I'm 6+5, my boobs hurt and I'm exhausted but I'm still on Progesterone and think I've felt like this since stims anyway. I had a few days of slight travel sickness feelings but nothing for a couple of days.

Hi everyone I had my embryo transfer (1 embryo) on Thursday past (3 days ago) .. I’ve took a pregnancy test to stop myself obsessing on the internet and there is 2 lines , second line is faded but very clear, is there a chance it could disappear again as the week goes on or should I be happy ?! Me

T4 how long it lasts in the body 🤔
Hi everyone ❤️ Quick question, I started on T4 vencamil 12 mg on Monday afternoon (8th April) took Tuesday, Wednesday, dose 12mg then found out gp botched the thyroid bloods 😡 I posted the whole saga, so not going to get into that. So how long will these 3 days of T4 12mg take to leave my system?

Jaw/Tooth ache with Liothyronine
In previous posts I've mentioned my poor conversion of T4 to T3 following thyroidectomy over 2 years ago. As a consequence in January I went to a private endo and got a script for 90 tablets of Thybon Henning T3 20mcg which I got from Roseway Labs. I started taking these which I split 10mcg am and 10mcg

Minimum time on levothyroxine dose before testing levels
What is the minimum time someone should be on a dose of levothyroxine before checking thyroid levels? NHS GP suggests 8 weeks. I had a TSH of 48.2 and FT4 3.9 and started levothyroxine 50mcg daily. I saw a private Endo who said to titrate up to 75mcg for 1 week and then go to 100mcg. I had been on 100mcg

Just been prescribed a week’s amoxycillin for a chest infection (3 times a day)!😞 I take first T4/T3 of the day at 7am+following T3 at 2pm + final T3 at 8pm. I can change round the two T3s to fit in with antibiotics but how do I fit the amoxycillin in without affecting the T3+T4? Confused.com!!🤓

N.I.C.E to stop the use of Lyiothronine (T3 ) prescribing
I have just heard from my local Pharmacist that she is finding it very difficult to source my T3 as the National Institute for Clinical Excellence is shortly to implement a ban on the use of T3 as they state that.... "Levothyroxine is a safe and acceptable form of therapy for those requiring replacement

T3 dosage
I’ve been taking T3 now for about 3 weeks I started off on 3mcg twice a day for a week didn’t feel much so I increased to 6mcg twice a day. I still feel like it’s barely touching the sides. My resting heart rate is still in the late 40s early 50s. I’ve also been doing the carnivore diet so I’m probably

Advice on which Blue Horizon test to take
I have recently posted for advice on whether I need to go back on thyroxine after a year's break. The consensus seemed to be 'yes'. I am thinking of ordering a Blue Horizon Premium Gold test kit but it lists this package as 14 tests. I only just wanted the one test at the moment to see where things
