What is the optimally results FT4/FT3

[BC99]

Hi, I am taking levothyroxine and T3,

My blood test results show that TSH is under range, FT3 very low, FT3 too high.

My question is, should I strive to achieve 50% Ft3 and 50% FT4, and don't worry about TSH?

Or if I am taking T3 my results of FT4 always will be low?

Thank you and have a nice day everyone 😊

Taking T3 suppresses TSH. That's what it does. So, no point in worrying about that. Getting both FT4 and FT3 to 50% would be pretty difficult, I think, And probably not very helpful anyway. So, don't worry about that, either. First thing to do is to raise your FT3 to at least 50% - many hypos need it a lot higher than that - and see how you feel. From then on, it's all trial and error to get both to levels that make you well - that's the important thing, how you feel, not the number. No-one can tell you what will eventually be the optimal number for you, only you can know once you get there.

Thank you greygoose, the problem what I have is extra 10kg to loose, I do my joga exercise every day, eat healthy, but instead of loose, my weight go up all the time!!! I feel good all the time,doesn't mater if my TSH is 30 or is 0.01,Or if my FT3or FT4 are low or high.

I am strange, but I can not trust myself to set up the treatment

Shows low vitamin levels, presumably you are now working on improving

Ft3 on high side

You probably went from zero T3 to 50mcg T3 far too quickly
