This is the information I have been using as a guide to my T3 treatment

As I couldn’t find out how to add a photo to my reply to Grey Goose I have added it to this new post.

I think they've left a lot out, here. It really does depend on how much levo you were taking in the first place. If it was just a small does, say 50 mcg, yes, you could just stop it and take 12.5. That's about equal. But you were on 175 mcg! That's totally different.

And I don't know about 'weeks' getting out of your system. Again, it depends how much you were taking. The half-life of levo is 1 week. So, that means that one week after you stop it, you will have half as much in your system.

And I certainly wouldn't split 12.5 mcg. It's too small a dose. You might be better off taking it all in one go no matter how much you're taking. It's a very individual thing, and you have to find what's best for you. I take my 75 mcg T3 all in one go.

And 12.5 mcg isn't really a starter dose. 6.25 mcg is a starter dose. And, as I said, one normally increases by 6.25 mcg every two weeks. So, I really don't think I'd trust this 'protocol', it's too brutal.

This website seems to be for anyone with high RT3

So advice perhaps doesn't really apply to anyone just wanting to add T3 to Levo

The OP doesn't want to add T3 to her levo, she wants to take T3 only.

Steni , do you have high rT3?
