For us to help you we need more information please, we can also target that help if you are specific in what help you need :)

We need to see your latest test results, please post them with their reference ranges. Ranges vary from lab to lab so it's essential we have the ranges that come with our result.

i'm on Levothyroxine 25 mg of dosage 1.5 tabs

Can you clarify please. Do you mean you take 37.5mcg Levo daily?

When were you diagnosed?

How long have you been on this dose?

With Hashimoto's, it may be possible to reduce the antibodies by adopting a strict gluten free diet. There is no guarantee but it has helped some members. Worth a try for 3-6 months.

Supplementing with selenium l-selenomethionine 200mcg daily can also help reduce the antibodies, as can keeping TSH suppressed.

Hashi's can cause low nutrient levels or deficiencies. You should test the following and post your results, reference ranges and units of measurement

Vit D

B12

Folate

Ferritin
