Anyone else experience warm hands coming n going on levothyroxine? 😊

[Shellybrown]

Just wondered if this is something others experience.

Yes. I have this issue never thought it could be connected to thyroid.

I think it's when the T3 gets converted. Also been on T3 in the past and get the same reaction.

Kinda nice as when l'm hypo my hands are usually icey cold 😂

In my experiences I found that the T3 keeps me nice and warm . On high doses of T4 my hands where cold since I don't convert my T4's to T3 well.

hi jellies can I ask how much T3 and Levo you take. I am constantly freezing no matter what I take.

[jgelliss in reply to Eton]

I would suggest checking out your Iron and Ferritin levels. They have much to do with it . It's not always the thyroid dosages that are at fault. If you feel well on your thyroid dose other than that you feel cold low Iron may be the cause.Best wishes.
