How much T3 should I take?

[Guest guest]

I am on my 5th week of just T3. I am a man, 6', 180 lbs, and am currently taking

75mcg of T3 daily. Today I started getting a slight tension headache I associate

with being hypo, and upped the dosage to 87.5mcg, and am wondering, how much T3

do others on here take? And should I expect my dosage to keep bumping up

slightly as the T4 gets replaced?

Best,

Yes, for many weeks your T4 levels will be falling causing less

conversion and needing a weekly raise to keep levels up.

Most people find a stable point of somewhere between 75 and 125 of T3

AFTER the resistance has cleared.

While waiting you can go higher, but if you do then you will have to

drop dramatically when resistance clears
