Hi hive mind! Thoughts on these? A friend's results. She has symptoms if fatigue and difficulty losing weight despite being a regular gym goer. Does the ratio between ft4 and ft3 look a big off to you or about right?

They look good but no-one knows where their "normal" hormone levels are because we're not tested when fit and well, so it's difficult to say if they are right for her.

TSH is good and where one would expect to see it in a healthy person.

FT4:FT3 ratio is 3.4 : 1 which is excellent.

It would have been better to have done the Ultravit test and got all the important vitamins and minerals tested at the same time.

Vit D

B12

Folate

Ferritin

Low levels or deficiencies bring their own symptons which can overlap with symptoms of hypothyroidism.
