Tah was 0.01 so lower than normal However t4 was (9-19) 13 T3 (3.8-6) 4.8 I've lowered my t4 dose and kept my t3 dose but

AS or sext step(s) suggestions.
Solitary enhancing nodule left prostate bed. Neg PSMA PET x 3 over two year period. Visible on 3 MRIs. Size seems stable but slowly rising PSA. Current PSA 0.35. Considering Bx before RT decision vs continuing AS. If Bx may do another Decipher. Initial decipher 0.69 high risk. Robotic prostatectomy

However, it seems that Thybon Henning does not work for me and I also need to supplement this with T3 from Sigma Pharm. Has anyone else experienced issues with

Enclomiphene citrate for late-onset hypogonadism?
I recently tried a TRT gel for my hypogonadism, about one year following my RT for Gleason 3+4 PCa (no evidence of metastasis before or after treatment). But after just one week of the gel, I had scary heart-centered side effects, so my Uro told me to get off it. What then happened is that I had

milk thistle - t3 - conflicting reports
hi there my liver enzymes 151 alt max is 35 so very very high - last November were 48. AST 58 (max is 35) I read that milk thistle can help liver - and help conversion but also lowers t3 ? I’m Taking NAC 1800mg and inflammation is negligible. ESR 6 and CRP 0.6 ! 👌 ferritin 121 B12 902 and

About to start IV Methylprednisone 500mg
Finally, after 9 months, they have diagnosed me with TED, after discounting Myasthenia Gravis, amongst many other things. I am Euthyroid, so my TSH, T4, T3 are in normal range, though my Thyroid Receptor Antibody blood test came back positive (though not that high 2.6). My MRI also implied TED. About

Shared care agreement, should I worry?
Hi all, Having completed a T4 & T3 trial with great successes, my NHS endo is soon due to approach my local GP for a shared care agreement to enable me to collect my prescription from the surgery. The surgery is in my home town, and it will be infinitely easier if this happens. Since, at the minute
