I can't help you with what thyroid hormones are available in Singapore itself.

But do you know what would happen if you imported it from elsewhere and you were found out?

Is it legal or illegal in Singapore to do this?

If it is legal to do this then you have no problem and can buy it from anywhere thyroid hormones are sold.

If it is illegal and your goods were confiscated by customs you would obviously lose money.

But would you be arrested?

What you have written isn't clear, I think this might be why you haven't had any replies. Are you saying you are taking NDT in Singapore or want to know if it is available or what? A little more information would be helpful.

When I enquired last year about T3 in a Singapore pharmacy they told me it could only be obtained from a hospital.

I'm in Singapore and my doctor told me it's only available at selected hospitals, she only named SGH as one of them though. Maybe you can try visiting an endo there, good luck

Tried. But the endo who saw me said my blood test levels are all in the normal range, even if my Ft3 is very low, it's still in the normal range so she cannot prescribe t3 to me. And she wanna lower my dosage of levo even farther since it's in the high normal range. I'm already feeling all the symptoms of hypothyroidism, but since my results are in the 'normal' range, they can't do anything. I felt alive even with graves disease unlike now where I'm feeling like I'm dead all the time. I feel like I was conned into surgery with the endo and surgeon telling me I just need a small pill every single morning after surgery and I'll feel all better. I feel like I'm watching myself out of my body all the time, can't even remember anything.
