TSH target
Hello, Thanks for everyone’s help with my questions already. I am in a thyroid group on Facebook and they have told me that if you are on levothyroxine medication for an under active thyroid then you should aim for your tsh to be as close to zero as possible, because the levothyroxine is meant to

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.

Taking water with thyroxine tablet
Do I need to always take my thyroxine tablet with a full glass of water for it to absorbed correctly? Thank you to any advice that anyone may have.

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?

Looking for low or suppressed TSH research papers
Hello. I’m on combination T4/T3. I have an endo appointment soon. He reduced my Levo last year because of suppressed TSH. I want to be able to argue for it to be increased again so would need to take along some research that says it’s okay for TSH to be suppressed when on T3. Can anyone help with some

just below normal Vit D symptoms
My husband has been suffering fatigue, low mood, and poor sleep over the last few months. Quite comprehensive blood tests only showed that his D3 level is just insufficient at 49, when acceptable levels should be 50+. Is it possible that his symptoms could be down to his D level? GP recommended he supplements

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
