Thylexan advice please

Ebs73 profile image
4 Replies

Hello, I'm self treating with T3. I am seeing improvement (on quite a high dose though) After about 4 months I've tried three types. 1st one was great but horribly expensive. 2nd one was terrible. 3rd one & the most used one thus far, is affordable ish but I've had horrible acne on my back & shoulders mainly, but elsewhere as well, since using uni pharma. Has anybody tried Thylexan? If so how effective has it been & have you had any side effects? Are the pills pretty consistent in their efficacy?

Thanks in advance. 😊

Ebs73,

Thylexan isn't widely used on the forum but there are posts about it in the link below.

You should try it for yourself as Uni-Pharma isn't helping you.
