Post-thyroid - what happens to thyroid hormone once it has been created. For example, can the body convert T4 to T3? Can the body get T3 into the cells of the body where it actually does its job.

Post-thyroid - doesn't that mean BEFORE your levels are within range of being diagnosed with hypothyroidism? I read the whole article..very informative and sad. These doctors appear to have their hands tied because of the medical boards, and are afraid to get into "trouble."

I know- so why aren't they making more noise about it. I think it was written in 2013 if I remember correctly. Interesting that there are medical people onboard.
