Anyone take Co Q10 and are on T4/T3?
I’m seriously thinking of adding Co q10 to my daily routine. I get migraines, and having watched many chats on the World Migraine Summit recently, it stands out as something that might help. (I’m 58, so won’t be taking it for fertility reasons). I’m not on anything that might be contraindicated with

Update in sustained release T3 and new paper
The recent review of treatment for hypothyroidism recommended further research to look at combination therapy. A group in Iran have done the following trial looking at sustained release combination T4/T3. Fascinating…… it suggests that daily sustained release capsules can deliver a stable T3 level over

Do I need to go back on Thyroxine?
Just a heads up folks, this is going to be a long post! I have been off thyroxine for just over a year now, I will attempt to explain in a long winded way how this came about. I was put on thyroxine when I went into menopause which happened before I was 50 (I am now 62). I have always been on 50mg,

Viatris 5mcg liothyronine feedback please from NHS
Hi. Has anyone taken Viatris 5mcg liothyronine T3. Or can you compare with other liothyronine 5mcg brands. My sister has just been prescribed T3 alongside her usual levothyroxine T4 medication privately as her latest T3 results was low (24%) But a huge surprise was that her NHS GP gave her a liothyronine

Magnesium as ozonated magnesium oxides
Hello again. Slow Dragon said that there needs to be 4 hours after T4 or T3 before taking Magnesium. I take magnesium from ozonated magnesium oxides with 3% potassium before bed to help with any constipation that still lingers a little. I asked the company about their product and they said they don't

Thybon v Teva T3
I am changing over from Teva T3 to Thybon T3. I am taking 15 mcg divided into 3 daily doses.

Not sure whether the Levo will be

Purchasing T3.
Hi everyone - hope everyone enjoying this sunny if windy day 😊. I posted my thyroid test results on yesterday and the replies came back stating I don't convert very well from FT4 to FT3, that has basically been the case for a long time. I recently had a conversation with GP who advised me my cholestrol

Switching from Armour Thyroid to T4/T3
I’m changing from Armour Thyoid to T4/3 prescribed by local Endo partly for financial reasons but also as I’m concerned about supply issues and monitoring. Should I swop gradually or is it better to finish the AT then start the T4/3 the next day. I currently take AT 1 grain am and 3/4 pm and have been

Is thyroid meds causing mental problems
My daughter of 27yrs with a learning disability has been going through major mood swings and depression for the last 18 months. She can’t sleep and is constantly crying and repeating herself. I managed to get an appointment with our local mental health and she had 2 appointments with a psychiatrist

FT3 results following introducing T3
Following on from a couple of people's suggestions from a previous post I have tested my thyroid hormone levels sooner than planned as I did a fast T3 protocol. I am on 50 mcg of T4 and 31.25 mcg of T3. I have been on 31.25 mcg for 3 weeks. I take T3 x3 per day (12.5mcg, 12.5mcg, 6.25mcg). Here are

T3 starting dose.
I appear to be a poor converter of t4 to t3. I had my first private endo appt today and have a private prescription for Liothyronine.T3. I have been given 3 months at 10mg daily. Is this a good starting dose. Just wondering whether to try 5mg daily first to see if it has the desired effect. Also going
