Are there any papers saying that taking T3 suppresses TSH please?

[TaraJR]

I know many people taking T3 have a very low/suppressed TSH. Are there any papers/studies/articles that actually say that T3 has that effect?

I know we all say it happens, but that's not very 'official' is it?!

better go back and alter title as T3 does not suppress T3 but TSH!

Aagh, thanks, done. More haste, less speed!

hi Tara , i've collected a few references to T3 lowering TSH more than T4 does , they are in the first reply to this post : healthunlocked.com/thyroidu.... /tsh-is-just-the-opinion-of-your-pituitary-about-your-dose-but-your-pituitarys-opinion-is-a-bit-warped-once-you-take-thyroid-hormone.

I thought this excellent post of yours said bits about low TSH from T3?

[TaraJR in reply to Sleepman]

Thanks, yes I've added it to my collated info on suppressed T3.
