T3/T4 combo versus Natural Thyroid (with all four hormones)...

[Guest guest]

I don't think I've posted for a while, but have appreciated what I've gotten

from others in the meanwhile...

Wondering if there's clinical difference in the benefits from a T3/T4 combo such

as taking synthetic levo (T4) and Cytomel (T3) if they can be effectively

co-dosed---or some synthetic combo, if it exists.....and

a quality natural thyroid product such as ERFA (and ???) reportedly are?

Part of this is by way of asking, do T1 and T2 in the natural product make a

noticeable difference?

Last summer my TSH--all the doctor will test--was around 0.5 on Levoxyl

in the range of 95-105 (can't recall exactly). I'm now on Levoxyl 125 but, even

so, my TSH was 2.5 a month or so ago.

Will be grateful for insights, comments, suggestions...

P.S.--I asked a local compounding pharmacy if he could make the equivalent of

(good) Armour, but I believe the only natural component he had was T4.
