Thai glandular - has this worked for anyone? Not working for me.

I started on 3 grains but bloods in July 2021 abnormal. Then increased to 6 grains but bloods still abnormal.

Anyone on this and how many grains is keeping you in the normal range please?

Thanks.

The Tru Thyroid product, if that is what you mean, has been criticised in several posts since it first became available.

The supplier even acknowledged issues and appeared to say they had made a mistake in making the first batches.

I wouldn't trust it at all.

As it is not of prescription quality and approved, we avoid using the formal Natural Desiccated Thyroid term.

I am so desperate to feel some normality that was willing to try. Thinking it would be as good as another Thai one I was previously on that got discontinued.

[M33R4 in reply to helvella]

Just to clarify, this one that's not working is not Tru Thyroid. I cannot give the name out but it's also from Thailand.

I looked at where I think you mean and couldn't see any tablets/capsules other than Tru Thyroid and Thyroid S.

I feel for you.

(Feel free to send me a PM with exact details.)

You can name the supplement but you can't give any indication of the supplier.

Unfortunately Thailand is not immune to having unscrupulous sellers who are more than happy to take advantage of desperate people 😠

Good grief, if 6 grains of whatever it is still gives abnormal bloods, it's surely not a genuine product!

I had a feeling. That is so sad. I bought 2 bottles costing me about £150😥

It used to be better years ago. But when a couple of brands disappeared from their market, things went downhill. Not all bad of course, but not all trustworthy either.

[M33R4 in reply to StitchFairy]

Do we know why the reputable ones stopped making it?

[StitchFairy in reply to M33R4]

I've never heard anything other than vague speculation and rumours.
