I have a question regarding my thyroid values
I am currently on thyroxine (and have been for 6months), and 2 months ago my levels were all in range and stayed on the same dose, however I recently had my routine check up and my TSH was low, but my free T4 was exactly the same as last time (in...
I was recently given arginine aspartate liquid by my sports physician, however to buy it's very expensive. I can get the following in bulk powder form
Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate (AAKG)
Arginine Ethyl Ester HCL
Di Arginine Malate
which would have the same effect as the aspartate?
Thanks in...
The science suggests that in as little as 2-3 weeks you can notice a large increase but this is attributed to neurological gains. Further gains are suggested to be achieved by 6-8 weeks, but of course this is all 'average' data everyone will be different depending upon genetics, lifestyle etc etc
Thanks. The IUD I'm having fitted apparently releases progestin (although I did try progesterone cream for the last few day but I don't think I used enough). Fingers crossed it will be the answer and stop all this anemia nonsense

Thanks for all your replies. I've had loads of blood work done as I was suffering with pernicious anaemia and also since I started taking thyroid meds. After several courses my last bloods (and I have had at least 5 in the last 4 months!) showed that my anaemia was better but have been told to...
I need some help....
current scenario is I am an international athlete and my periods pretty much debilitate me. I think the problems are linked to my hypothyroid and until that levels out I have this problem every month.
Currently I bleed for anything from 8 to 15 days mainly light but still...
I found soy give me spots and a colleague told me it was to do with high oestrogen.
Almond milk is great. I haven't found coconut milk in drink form here yet though but sounds great!
