Are you supposed to adjust your dose up or down of NDT for eg Winter / Summer / illness? Someone told me yesterday that you should.

I think it depends how you feel, but it is something to consider if you feel you need more in the winter. Your metabolism works harder when it's cold, to help keep you warm. But if you feel fine, you don't have to

OK. Thank you.

Dr Peatfield told me if it was a very warm summer to reduce meds and if very cold to increase.

I also read it it on Thyroiduk but cannot find it at present.
