Interesting?

I followed a gluten free diet for 3 months ending in January. Shortly after, I had my TSH done and it had gone from suppressed at less than 0.1(before going GF) up to 1.36. I have just had it done again, after eating gluten since January and it has gone back down to 0.5. Any ideas why?

I don't know if this helps to answer your question?

Thank you for the link. My body seems to do the reverse of the study ie my TSH went up when I was GF yet the study shows that most GF patients need less levo! My body is weird!

Vey interesting. I have the feeling that since being on GF for 3 months and knowing from tests that my TPO antibodies have reduced, I suspect I may have an even more suppressed TSH, as I am now overheating and have managed to lose a bit of weight. Still have terrible pains in my hands though!
