Monitoring Thyroid
I have a condition which is known as an MPN . I have a haematology appointment this week when my Consultant is going to discuss a new treatment. This treatment is known to interfere with thyroid function and anyone going on it will need their thyroid function monitored as it can cause thyroid issues

Healthy eating vs BMI
I've recently started IVF and was advised I have quite low AMH. Because of this I have tried to eat healthy to improve my egg quality. The downside to this is I have been losing weight which has brought me below the recommended BMI for IVF and I was almost refused treatment. Now I'm not sure what is

The Differential Diagnosis of Discrepant Thyroid Function Tests: Insistent Pitfalls & Updated Flow-Chart Based on a Long-Standing Experience
We often see members posting results which, at least initially, are odd and maybe make little sense. This paper recognises and discusses such test results. Quite long and takes some effort to read - but worth it if you are interested. [i]

Could thyroid be causing the issues ?
I have enclosed my daughters ( age 22 ) last thyroid result panel. Her TSH in June last year was over 6 then swung down to under 2 in September but is on the rise again. Her T3/ T4 are always just above minimum. Her father has Hashimoto’s as did her Grandfather and so does her male cousin. Grandad unfortunately

Ferritin dropping, FT3 is not great
Hello wise ones. I'm coming up to a year since a diagnosis of Hashimotos, and on Levothyroxine. I've been trying to get the dosage increased in tiny increments of 12.5 ug after each blood test. So far I've been successful but it feels like slow progress. I'm currently taking 87.5 ug daily. My doctor

Stages of disease
I have Hashimoto's and understand that it is the cause of 95% of thyroiditis.My TSH only appeared high a year ago. Prior to that I had multiple symptoms for years. Recently I discovered that I also have antibodies and my thyroud ultrasound showed evidence of the disease. I wonder if anybody knows, if

Loosing hope
Hi everyone - sorry, this is a long one! Grab a brew… Our first IVF round failed in February and we didn’t get any in the freezer. My OH’s semen analysis was really positive, so the focus has been on me with my low AMH levels, previous ovarian surgery and age (38). We only got 2 eggs, both fertilised

Have you disclosed your self-medication to GP?
Hello Everybody, I've been successfully self-medicating with T4 and T3 or NDT, without GP's knowledge, since 2016. For the 30 years before that I could not get diagnosed for hypothyroidism because I am borderline central hypothyroid and my TSH never got high enough for the NHS diagnosis criteria.

Baffling results on T4&T3!
Morning all, I’m awake early feeling like total rubbish so thought I’d jump on and share in the hope that someone can shed light on my baffling blood test results which came through on Friday! I’ve been on 75mcg Levothyroxine and 15mcg T3 for the last 6 weeks (having slowly increased T3 from nothing

response regarding my endocrinologist complaint
Hi, I am sharing the letter I received from the hospital ( it’s taken them well over 6 months). I was so ‘cheesed off’ with the reply that it’s taken me 3 days to read it again and then I spilt coffee on it 🥴. I don’t know why I thought I’d get anything better, but the response is actually farcicle

Impending GP appointment advice
Hello everyone and thankyou for your advice.I was diagnosed last August with hypothyroidism and cautiously started on 25mcg. I assume because of being over 65. Since then I have been having the usual 6-8 week blood tests and in February finally reached a dosage of 100mcg daily. My current weight suggests

Got GP appointment but what to say to get him to test anything more than TSH
Hi 3 months ago I wrote a post about my daughters results since 2018 & her vitamin levels which are dire. It has taken her this long to manage to get a telephone appointment with a GP next Wednesday. My question is what does she say to convince them to test more than just her TSH. I went through
