Welcome to the forum y2KiUua9
Many people are perfectly well on levothyroxine (T4) alone, but some do need to add a little T3. Without more information, no-one can say whether or not you personally might benefit from T3.
Please post your most recent thyroid lab results and your current medication regime so that members can offer their opinions.
