(Written on behalf of my friend Bonnie)What is the typical amount of T3 that someone would take in a day if they are on a permanent T3-only drug therapy? I'm currently working to clear my RT3 and have worked my dose slowly up to 60 mcg of Cynomel daily. I just saw my endo, and he says I should be on no more than 20 mcg of T3 per day TOTAL. I've been feeling so much better with my dose increases, but now I'm concerned that I might be taking too much.I'm going to order more Cynomel and continue to work through this RT3 issue until I'm well. What should I set as my top limit on the amount of daily T3 to take as I reach clearing?Also, could an imbalance in sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone) cause an RT3 issue or make me feel like I'm not getting better even with the T3-only treatment?Any help you can give is greatly

appreciated.Thanks,Bonnie
