Thanks for the heads up on this. I have switched from 2.5 grains of Thiroyd to 5 of these Tru Thyroid - now day 3 ....

Will be interested to see your blood tests - I take it you are on it>? if so how much are you on and how long has it been?

Cheers,

Melissa

Hiya I’m on 2 grains so that’s 4 tablets if Tru been on 6 weeks. though the seller told me people often need double the dose with low stomach acid/digestion issues which most people with hypo have don’t they do if need be take more I would . I’ll post my results on Tuesday fingers crossed 🤞

Been on it for about two weeks and its not very good. I have to take 10 just to get my temps at normal. Use to be on Thyroid S and miss it so much

Are you still taking Tru thyroid? I am running out of thyroid S and thinking of giving Tru thyroid a go, are you still on it? Have you tried increasing your dose after your blood results? Thanks

Hi... i am so glad i found this post because i now know i am not alone. When i was in Bangkok in late 2019, i managed to get one of the last remaining bottles of Thiroyd. I went to Greater Pharma and was told that they would no longer be producing it. Gutted was an understatement because i did so well on Thiroyd. Then i heard about Tru Thyroid. Let me tell you that these are nothing more than sawdust made into pills. I tried these for about 6 months. I gained about 12kg and my TSH shot up to 11! My hair began to thin and all the usual hypo symptoms started. I increased from

4 tablets to 6 and give it 2 more months. Sadly, today my TSH came back as 16! So these pills are a fraud. I have switched back to synthetic t3/t4. Already i am feeling more balanced.

Question is, what the fudge do these pills contain? To anyone who is considering buying these tablets - DON’T BOTHER!!!!
