The six weeks i went without levo this was the full results. Free t3 stayed good at 2.70 range of 2.18 to 3.98, my free t4 dropped drastically to .78 range .76 to 1.46 and my tsh shot up to 9.12 range .36 tp 3.74. My question is what causes the free t4 to drop so drastically without meds but the free

Iron and t4/t3 update
Thanks for everyone here for educating me, I have managed to get my iron levels to a higher levels they may have ever been! I'm so pleased and hopefully they'll continue going up. I have used the Heme iron recommended by many here. It's been one year since I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and I'm

Guidance on levo dosing
Hi All , I'd really appreciate any guidance/wisdom that could help me with the next step on my Thyroid journey!.. To summarize, I have been subclinical hypothyroid (TSH comes back in 4-5 range) several years. I started on Levothyroxine in January this year to try feel better, and have kept a log

Useless Endocrinology appointment
Hi everyone, So I had my Endocrinology appointment. She asked me if I took my dose of t3 before the test at 7am and I said no as she caught me off guard! She had slyly earlier in the appointment already asked me when I took my t3 dose (in the morning as one dose). Unfortunately the doctor is a TSH

Can You Refuse Certain Blood Tests
I had a consult with a Livi doctor last week for non thyroid related issue, he wanted me to have a load of bloods done. I've checked online and see what he's ordered. It includes B12, which is pointless as I'm on jabs and have been for years, so B12 always very high. ( the lab always moan and point this

Ttc with high tpo antibodies
I have had 3 miscarriages in the last couple of years. 1 spontaneous 2 mmc. Always around 6 to 7 weeks. I was given aspirin and progesterone on the last pregnancy but it didn't work. After my 3rd mc I had lots of investigations done and it showed I had high TPO antibodies. Everything else was normal.

TSH level when on levothyroxine
Hi all, very quick question ahead of a GP appointment (first one since prescribed levothyroxine 2 years ago - initially 50 then moved up to 75). Thyroid blood tests then revealed although levels just in ranges, high antibodies so diagnosed Hashimoto’s. Had gone in to GP thinking was menopausal (age

Hypo, Hashi's, Menopause & Testosterone
My last sex hormone blood test showed my testosterone at [u]
1.91!

(range of 0.10-1.42) This concerns my Endo doc who has been amazing treating my thyroid issues, but has now informed me that AFTER
age 60
you shouldn't BEGIN hrt. 😪 So, that's out of the question for me since

Hair loss

Mannitol
I’ve been pretty rubbish with compliance of my levothyroxine up until 12 months ago when I made a concerted effort to take every day. Since then I have had significant health problems but normal TSH and free T4. My symptoms have been allergic in nature with angioedema of the airway, hives and joint pain
