help interpreting last test results

Hello Ive written here in the past with my issues on Thyroid-S and have decided to stick it out and go slow. I was wondering if I can get your thoughts on my last results: Im on 1.75 grains of ndt for 5 weeks and premenopausal. I did not have my period for 6 months (since August) I beleive due to low ndt (was taking 1.25 and hypo), and since I reached 1.75, Ive had my period 3 times in Feb and March, every 15-18 days which brought down my iron again somewhat (I supplemented in December and saturation reached 50%). I can see my vit D is low and im supplementing and I may need to try 2 grains, but every time I do, I get the "shakes". Tests where taken "as per the book" no B vit or iron and last dose of ndt at 3 pm previous day. Any inputs appreciated. I self-medicate. They dont test rt3 where I am at currently.

TSH 0.1 L range 0.27-4.2

FT4 12.3 pmol/L range: 11.97-21.88

FT3 4.5 pmol/L range: 3.1-6.8

IRON PROFILE

Serum Iron 71.6 μg/dL range: 33-193

Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC) 278 μg/dL range: 135 - 392 μg/dL

Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) 349.6 μg/dL range: 168 - 585 μg/dL

Transferrin Saturation Index 20.48 % range: 15-50%

vit D 39.6 range: >30

Hey there again :

Are you splitting this dose - do you feel any better than when on T4 and how do these thyroid results compare to when taking T4 ?
