Hypothyroid and Exercise

[Guest guest]

I'm so sorry to keep asking so many questions of you all but there may be some

of you who have some answers or advise.

I'm wondering about the effect of exercise when thyroid levels are low, I've

been doing various forms of exercise for years and not got the results I should

have.

I'm now finding that it's actually making me feel a lot worse than usual, I've

done my usual couple of miles on the treadmill today and am not only exhausted

but in lots of pain in my legs and lower back.

Do other people experience this?

I'm also wondering whether the doctors should have addressed the fact that I

have such low SHBG's and Testosterone undetectable, Androstenedione and DHEAS

undetectable. I can trace these back to 1996 and I've been looking on line all

evening for more info - certainly the very low DHEA is suggested as a possible

cause for the hair loss. Also linked to adrenal issues.

I'm wondering whether I should supplement? I'm doing the Saliva test first to

re-check but any advise would be so very much appreciated.
