Thanks for posting ,the site is very easy to understand .
This is really interesting, thank you Low iron suppresses TSH too? So I am guessing my irn levels wont be helping then ferritin: 34.3 (5-148).
Ferritin is stored iron in the liver. So when iron is low in the blood it goes to the store cupboard to pick up some more Low Iron etc. affects the conversion of the T4 into the ACTIVE thyroid hormone T3....
Hope you are treating that LOW iron ...

Could be something interesting in the above posts.....
Thanks Marz, I know I should take something. its just constipation is already bad...but then I take 2 laxatives a day so maybe I should just try the iron tablets. I will buy some
if you take VitC with the iron it will help both the absorption and the constipation. Research VitC - Linus Pauling - Nobel Prize Winner. Keep increasing the C until the constipation disappears !! Maybe you are UNDER- TREATED too for the thyroid....as constipation indicates a sluggish metabolism You could start with VitC 1000 mcg x 2 daily....good luck
I have Crohns so do not have that problem
