Just watched this debate. Sorry if someone else posted.

Actually they agree it that large study needed and current evidence is not enough.

T3 and pregnancy is a no no.

Slow acting T3 is a hope for future.

Questions at the end are good.

Listen to leading experts debate this controversial treatment for patients with hypothyroidism.

For: Professor Peter Taylor, Consultant Endocrinologist, Cardiff

Against: Professor Kristien Boelaert, Consultant Endocrinologist, Birmingham

The session was chaired by Professor Mark Strachan, Consultant Endocrinologist, Edinburgh, and was followed by a Q&A session.
