Weight gain on T3

[Hippyhappy234]

Hi everyone

I am taking cynomel which I started on Tuesday after taking Turkish Tiromel for the last few months.

I recently had an adrenal saliva test done which was morning optimal low high & low.

On Tuesday & Wednesday I was guessing what times to take it & put on 4 lb in one day as that day I took 50mcg.

I am now taking 25mcg at 8am 25 mcg at 1pm & 25mcg at 6pm since last 2 days.

My question is how long will it take for me to notice a difference in my weight as that is my main hypo symptom.
