T4 - Experiences and review

[aquarius21]

All infos about T4 or T3 are welcome.

For people who have used it, what were your experiences ?
I have done the search, but the goal is to get as much information
about t4 (or t3) in one thread.

What was your dosage and goal ?
How about your Energy, mood, body fat, ... ?

Also is there anyone with low-normal thyroid levels or hypo symptoms,
who did the t4 trial ? how did you feel using T4 ?

Is there any energy increase when using T4 ?

Thx

Benn running either at different times. Feel that after a time the T4 loses some of its effect which i attribute to the body's drive for homeostasis. I think that the body starts converting a lesser part of the T4 to T3 after a time but i could be wrong. On the other hand i'm fairly sure that using T4 is a better long term solution since u do not supress the ability of the thyroid to produce T3.

I've taken thyroxine daily for the past 6-7 years with blood tests every 3-6 months.

When levels are low due to not taking anything at a regular time or forgetting completely then energy levels go downhill badly, weight gain can happen too.

When finally taking it (if taking extra) then there is an energy boost but too much is also supposed to be bad for keeping a hold of muscle.

For what people use it for on this board I wouldnt have a clue. Maybe it helps,, well I dont doubt the people who say it works but surely there is something better out there?

It is a tool like any other. It can be the right tool for certain goals in the right circumstances.
