EBRT - sunbathing, water intake, iodine, kids
Hello, I'm 70 years old and I've just started EBRT to prostate and seminal vesicles and have some questions: 1.) Is it safe to be sunbathing to parts that are not being irradiated? 2.) I know that I should drink a lot of water. Approximately how much water should I drink daily? I'm 5.7 ft (1.74 m)

T3-only/ iodine levels
Can someone please explain the impact that taking T3-only medication might have on iodine levels given that deiodination is no longer involved in T4 to T3 conversion? Thank you!

Starting donor egg treatment
So after a long and difficult journey we are now starting with donor eggs with a Spanish clinic. From my blood results (TSH) I have been advised to take an over the counter iodine supplement - does anyone have any recommendations of which brand and what strength? I have asked them if a brand I found

Advice on my non-existent TSH Please
I had radio iodine treatment 5 years ago after having Graves. I am on 75 and 100 Levothyroxine on alternate days (a low dose I know). I was given additional T3 med lythothyronine 18 months ago, 5 mg twice daily which improved my quality of life no end. My thyroid levels have been fairly steady over

Daily multivitamins do not help people live longer, major study finds
The taking of general multivitamins has long been questioned here on this forum. The article specifically identifies iron: [i]Meanwhile iron, which is added to many multivitamins, can lead to iron overload and raise the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and dementia.[/i] I think we'd also advocate

Spinal stenosis
Hi, I am quite new here so unsure how it all works. I have been diagnosed with spinal stenosis, bulging disc, fibro, nerve damage, problems in my knees . I knew about the disc whilst working but saw a chiropractor twice a year & kept fit walking. I'm now unable to work since my back went in 2020. Sciatica

IUD mirena coil fitted extreme pain
Hi so I'm hoping someone can reassure me this is normal and will ease in time. I just had an IUD fitted this morning I had no idea what to expect I figured it was like having a smear test, uncomfortable but not painful. This was not the case for me I found it extremely painful I had to use gas and air

I keep changing dose, feeling better, then having a flare-up of mysterious symptoms, then feeling worse again.
I (31F) was diagnosed with Hashimoto's exactly one year ago. Before then, I spent 2 years trying to convince public healthcare that I was having hypothyroid symptoms, but my TSH kept coming back at 2.5 so they dismissed me. In August 2023 I saw a private endo and she put me on levo as my TSH came back

sea moss
hi, does anyone know anything about sea moss supplements. I’ve heard really good things, but it has iodine in, so I’m not sure if I can try it with hashimotos.

Update
Hi everyone just to update on my T3, I had to come off it, it was definitely not agreeing with me. I went on it first back in Dec. 23 and started by quarter of pill after a few weeks half but I started to get very distressing breathlessness and I have Asthma so I knew this was a very different breathlessness
