🙂 It’s likely you’ll get the best advice from another Healthunlocked group. Type ThyroidUK in the search box (above right) to find a link.

You must join the Thyroid UL page on here. They have the most fantastically knowledgeable people on there.

You can't just take T3 to lose weight. It may help, but t's needed for lots of other reasons too. You first need full tests done, which you may have to get privately. Thyroid UK page will give you all the info you need.

T3 can be a life saver -it was for me - but it's a potent medication, so you can only take it when you really know you need it!
