I have just seen my endo 🤦‍♀️ And I suggested I might try a t4/t3 combo which I have never tried or been offered before. I currently self medicate on armour after having a terrible time on t4 only. I feel really well on armour except my weight keeps creeping up no matter what I try (and believe me I’ve tried!). And the cost and difficulty obtaining it doesn’t help either! So I have now been given a prescription for t4 and t3. I currently take 2.5 grains armour split between two doses. I feel that I would like to slightly reduce my t3 and slightly increase my t4 intake as my recent bloods show I maybe have a little too much free t3:
Free t3 = 5.3 (3.1 - 6.8)
Free t4 = 10 (11-22)
Tsh = <0.01 (0.30-5.00)
Can anyone recommend what dosage of t4 and t3 I should take?
Many thanks
Anna
