These are my first blood tests since starting 1 grain of NDT two weeks ago. Time to increase?

Previous tests (whilst still on Levothyroxine) were:-

9th July

TSH - 1.4 (0.2-4.5)

Free T4 - 11 (9-21)

Free T3 - GP refuses to test

I would say yes as your Ft4 in both tests are very low. I don't know what dose of levo you were on but you will probably end up closer to two grains of NDT.

So effectively you went from 50mcg T4 to 38mcg T4 and 9mcg T3. It's only been 2 weeks and your fT4 is pretty low and heading lower...your fT3 is still low, so yes I would increase.
