Yes. Some people notice a difference, but many don't
T4 is storage hormone.
In theory you can take a full weeks dose all in one go. Personally I would not like to try it!
You could get a pill cutter and cut into half then half again to make up the 75mcg. Your method shouldn’t make much of a difference. Try it and see how you feel. This condition is all about tweeking to your individual needs.
