Theacrine - Potential Caffeine Alternative with Anti-PCa potential?
So I don't take a lot of supplements since my surgery and I'm still undetectable but understandably very leery at taking anything (there's a ton of stuff out there) other than stuff with a well-established safety record like

Just got updated thyroid hormone results — see why I'm tired.
B12 and
vitamin
D
are very good / optimal for hypothyroid, so it's not low nutrients. I am thinking (from recent discussion based on the previous lab work) that it still makes sense to increase the Synthroid, and leave the Cytomel stable. If I convert it, the T3 should increase.

Low Estradiol and low Iron - is it Thyroid?
B12,
D
, folate - optimal high in range Ferritin- still not optimal, always around 25-30% range even though I'm supplementing with Floradix, Active Iron and Gentle Iron.

CA 27-29 has your tumor marker test ever gone into normal range
I had began taking high dose
vitamin
D
supplements due to a low level of 11. Had to discontinue because it caused severe rapid heart beat. On the very next TM test, I received a result of <12.0. WTH!!! Can this possibly be normal????

Advice on test results
These will include various antibodies, iron, vit
d
, folate, and the repeat thyroid tests. I previously had low
vitamin
d
and folate, but both have improved significantly over the last year with supplements.

Increasing Levo but not feeling great
hellooooo I've been having some trouble with increasing my levothyroxine lately and wondered if you could help please? I've been taking levothyroxine for about 4 years roughly and it's very slowly been increasing (as expected). I started on 25, then 50, then I was on 75 for about two and a half

Low appetite
Hi, undiagnosed but strongly suspect hypo possibly Hashi and gathering info/signs etc. Started supplements for folate, vit d (with k) and b complex just about to start magnesium too. On HRT including DHEA. So, my appetite has been on the wane, probably since menopause and thyroid problems began.

Would an iodine supplement help?
I still don't feel well (very tired and the most dreadful brain fog which has stopped me driving) and wondered how I would know if an iodine supplement might help? Any thoughts would be most appreciated. Latest Medichecks results - stopped taking b12 liquid 2 weeks before test. Taking Spatone, VitaminD

Can NDT help with low calcium levels?
Since my total thyroidectomy in April I have been on put on 125 mcg of Levothyroxine and am tolerating it quite well ( no gastro problems like with most tablets and energy levels ok ) except for extreme muscle stiffness and joint pain. Calcium levels tend to be fluctuating between ‘ normal’ and low.

Vitamin D metabolism in cancer: potential feasibility of vitamin D metabolism blocking therapy
Vitamin
D
circulates in the blood as inactive 25-D. The kidneys will convert 25-D to the active hormone 1,25-D, as needed, to maintain circulating calcium levels. Elsewhere, cells that need 1,25-D first produce the enzyme that performs the conversion of 25-D.
