Gotu Kola for brain health
I found an interesting article about this little known herb (at least I wasn't aware) that appears to help with memory. Maybe some of you have already tried it. If so, please share your experience. https://www.wellandgood.com/gotu-kola-benefits/

Test results
My latest blood tests have just come back. I’d be grateful for comments from the amazing admins please. At the moment I’m not feeling great, my last tests about 8 months ago showed my B12 to be low so I started taking a liquid B12 supplement sublingually. I’m not taking any iron supplements. I take vit

Ndt and iodine supplement?
Hello everyone! I started treatment with NDT in t4 6 micrograms and t3 1.4 in December 2023. I tolerate it well and I'm happy about it! From my analysis done this month it turns out that my ft4 is 0.98 and ft3 is 2.69 and the tsh is 1.34... How do you find these analyses? My endocrinologist wants to

Bench mark blood tests before switching to NDT
I would welcome any comments or advice on these results and on the process of switching from levothyroxine to NDT. Thank you! Hypothyroidism I have been taking levothyroxin 100 mg for over 30 years since my early 40s. (This is my only medication. Otherwise I keep healthy with yoga, regular exercise

A little update
Hi all, I just thought I'd give a little update as I've not posted here in about a year and just possibly my experience may be of interest. I am not in ANY way invalidating anyone else's condition or treatment, this is just my story. For years I have struggled with low mood, lacking 'oomph' in life.

An Enlightening Endocrine Adventure
After appeasing an endocrinologist worried about my suppressed TSH by a cunning lab trick -- withholding NDT for three days before going for the blood work -- I realized I needed to titrate up the dose. Many thanks to those who replied with their NDT experience. I cranked it up to nearly double what

Switching to NDT – How to build up dose?
After many years on levothyroxine 100mg, I have now been prescribed Armour thyroid 60mg (1 grain) to be taken twice a day, but starting at ½ grain twice a day. How quickly should I build up from this to 1 ½ grains per day, and then to 2 grains per day? After one week, two weeks ..? What are the side

History of continued low and fluctuating iron levels - advice?
hi folks. Just had my latest bloods back from helpful GP (he’s actually happy for me to sort my thyroid with Roseway! TSH barely exists) My iron is pretty abysmal tho .. Last time i had my transferrin saturation index done it was 40% so bang on mid way. January I think it was. It’s now dropped to19%

Hair Loss on NDT
Hi can anyone shed some light on my continuous hair loss. It was one of my symptoms with my hypothyroidism. I started Thyroid-s and it eventually stopped but then started again about two months ago, otherwise I feel great, infact better than I have in years. I take 1. & 3/4 grains AM and 1 & 1/2 in PM

Liothyronine (LT3) prescribing in England: Are cost constraints inhibiting guideline implementation?
Whatever else, this demonstrates beyond any doubt that the cost of the liothyronine Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient is but a minor part of the price charged to the NHS. I'd argue that the simple fact that the NHS agrees these prices strongly suggests something VERY wrong with medicines procurement.

New research. Linking Amiodarone inhibiting levothyroxine just published.
I'm a little staggered this is new!! But it is.... And I've experienced a lot of problems with ndt tolerance level even 7 months since Amiodarone was stopped. Beginning to wonder whether Amiodarones had a permenant effect. In Vivo Evaluation of the Pharmacokinetic Interaction between Levothyroxine

Advice on raising NDT
Following on from my post on 26/02/24, my symptoms got worse (increased number of anxiety attacks and unable to cope with pain in head/neck and upper back) and the GP didn't have any ideas, so I saw a thyroid specialist recommended by thyroid UK in April. The doctor had my blood tests done and these

Trying to interpret my results
Hi I was wondering if I could ask some advice regarding my latest results. I've just had bloods done so anticipating the usual conversation with my GP about my TSH being too low.... I've screen shot my results since 2015 basically as I've been tracking them as my TSH rarely changes, even with a reduction

How quickly does TSH increase when you stop taking NDT?
I buy some of my NDT without a script, I take 120mg per day. My GP prescribes me 90mg a day. So I get the rest elsewhere. My GP doesn’t understand that TSH is suppressed on NDT, and I’m not going to be successful in educating him. My TSH was 0.01 on 150mg, but I reduced to 120mg about 5 or 6 weeks ago
