Hi I'm on 125 dose of thyroxin and have seen very little improvement even tho doctors say levels are ok. I'm wondering now wether to ask for HRT as suffering with menopause symptoms, still got aches pains weight gain insomnia hair thinning night sweats etc etc. Can't even cuddle my husband in bed anymore as soon as I do it sets of instant hot flash. Could anyone advise me on this pros cons. Can you even take HRT with thyroxine. Grateful of any advice before going to doctors.

I’m on hrt and thyroxine. Their symptoms do mimic each other. The joint pains will deffo be menopause. Mine were horrific. Hrt changes my life so much. They two meds are fine together x

I’m on HRT and Thyroid medication (liothyronine T3). When I was on levothyroxine (T4) I was fine taking HRT too. It’s ok to take both.

Are you on the Thyroid forum ? They are very helpful too. You’ll get a lot more responses from them as I’ve noticed people don’t get many responses on this forum.

Hope you feel better soon. 🙂
