hypothyrodism

Recently I have done my blood work and my doctor told me that everything is ok... However, after doing my own research on thyroid hormones, low t, prolactin etc I know that there is something wrong with my body. Now I know that I might have subclinical hypothyroidism and that may be the cause...

Several years back I had high TSH (6.2) but normal T3 and T4. My Dr said he could prescribe levothyroxine and see if I felt any better even though I really wasn't feeling bad. Really felt no difference but stayed on it anyway. Now years later I am on testosterone and feel great other than still...

In my case, FT3/FT4 levels are within range (upper limit of FT3) but the pituitary hormone TSH has not been responding to thyroid replacement as I previously posted on. More investigation reveals that I carry the Thr92AlaD2 variant which predisposes me to a T4-T3 conversion defect (+/+ [C/C]...

Hi everyone, I went to the dr a while back and requested bloodwork for thyroid, this is what I got back and it seems abnormal to me. TSH seems high and I’m having hypo symptoms, feeling extremely tired poor sleep, body feels heavy in the morning, inability to think clearly, shortness of breathe...

I know it is late question.. Week ago I jumped on 25mcg of levothyroxine because of some sides… I am on trt for few years and have really low SHBG - 8,8 so most of those sides could be because of bad protocol. Anyway sides are - hair loss, low sexdrive + ED, bad mood, tiredness, and morning body...

So im on test for years now. Went in for my 3 month checkup and my tsh came up as 5.7 The doctor prescribed me 50 mcg unithroid It would explain alot, such as my fatigue, sleep issues. Brain fog and being cold for a while now. Should i start on the meds, or should i test my t3, t4, rt3 and...

Tsh: 2.78 (.4-4.5) T3 free: 3 (2-4.4) T4 free: 1.18 (.82 - 1.77) Reverse t3: 14.2 (9-24) Thyro antiB: <1 (0-.9) TPO Ab: 8 (0-34) I was having hypo symptoms but they may be related to low Testosterone. Waiting on those results too. What do y’all think?

SHBG is talked about a lot as a good predictor of how fast one clears testosterone out of their body. Low SHBG frequently necessitates the need for more frequent injections per week. Do factors such as EGFR and hypothyroidism also factor into how fast an individual processes testosterone? On the...

There is a lot of controversy about whether reverse T3 (rT3) should be measured to assess hypothyroidism. The normal thyroid gland secretes T4 (an inactive precursor), T3 (the active hormone), and reverse T3, a biologically inactive form of T3 that may block T3 from binding to the thyroid...
