Dosage Change needed? Can you help

Hi All.

It’s been some time and was doing well. Dosage had been more or less consistent and feeling well until now.

I am taking in split doses 2 grains of NDT and 25mcg of T3. Started to put on weight and feeling a bit moody. Took bloods and results are as follows:- TSH- 0.005 (0.27-4.2) ; T3 - 4.39 (3.1- 6.8) and T4 - 8.55 (12-22). Recently went an hysterectomy (7 months ago) and just need some guidance .. what should I be doing here?

Many many thanks for any feedback

SR

There's quite a lot of "room" in both free ranges for an increase. I'd probably increase the NDT a bit first, as this boosts both frees, and see if that improves how you feel.

But it's all small tweaks at this stage, to find your personal "sweet spot"

Many thanks.

May up the T3 as NDT is difficult to source ( well last time it was)

Thank you for your response x
