Shut down after a 12 week T3 cycle?

[poantrex]

How long did you take T3?

Few weeks at a low dose (never more than 40mcg).

i did 6wks of cytomel on my last cycle and i am ok. what exactly are his symptoms and what else did he use?

doctor's don't usually prescribe T3 to people with hypothyroidism, they use T4.

T4 converts to T3

The symptoms, NONE. Other stuff used, for the most part, NONE.

BLOODTEST RESULTS REVEALED PROBLEMS.

I don't care how you feel, that doesn't mean that you've fully recovered to pre-treatment thyroid levels. Look, i'm not saying that you'll become hypothyroid form using the stuff. It is possible, but not likely. But like using steroids, having your thyroid hormone levels return to the level they were prior to treatment is not likely.

That is quite frankly, the most idiodic thing i have EVER heard here. Yeah, who cares if your metabolism is fucked even though there are no obvious symptoms? Who cares if you are more likely to BECOME hypo at a later age?

The discussion doesn't stop with the thyroid either, are you suggesting we ignore a problem if we don't feel any side effects (like say..high BP).

Gimme a break.

just get bloodwork done and lets be done with this thread

T4 converts to T3

Did I say it doesn't? But the body converts T4 to T3 which is supposedly better for you thyroid as opposed to taking straight T3 as your body thinks it's producing more T4.

how does one gauge a shutdown metabolism once off a longish T3 cycle WITHOUT a bloodtest?

any other way?
