Hi. Can you pls advise me on how to add the T3 to my T4

I'm on 100 mic of Levo

And the caps of T3 are 75 mic

I am doing this as I can't lose weight at all even tho I'm on good clean diet ! I don't think I'm converting!!

Doc useless so I'm going it alone ( with your help!😊)

My T4 is ... 15. (9/19)

TSH is 1.01. ( 0.35/4.94)

As its powder I'm guessing I need to weigh it out carefully if it's going to be a small amount along side the Levo

Thanks in advance!!

That t3 is slow release I believe so personally I wouldn't know how you use but be careful and hopefully someone may know more to help you. X

MummyG, It was a mistake to buy 75mcg T3. That is equivalent to 225mcg T4. You'll need to divide the capsule into 12 doses to get 6.25mcg which is the starting dose I recommend adding to your 100mcg T4. If you tolerate the 6.25mcg dose, increase to 12.5mcg after a couple of weeks if you need to, hold for 4-6 weeks and have a FT3 test before increasing further.
