Guest guest Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 I was diagnosed with RT3 Dominance at the end of January. I've been on T3 only medication for about 2 months. I'm beginning to see improvements such as: my hair doesn't fall out like it did and I do have a little more energy. From what I've read, it seems that it takes about 3 months of T3 only medication before all the T4 clears and the receptors clear. Has anyone had this experience? What should I expect when everything clears? Did anyone lose weight after the T4 & receptors cleared? I'm 39 years old, female, full thyroidectomy in Aug 2008 and in good health other than having Hashimoto's (and know hypo due to RT3 Dominance). I exercise and watch what I eat, but get discouraged that I don't lose any weight. I'm 5'3 " and weigh 140 lbs - about 10-15 pounds more than I did this time last year. If any of you have any information, I would greatly appreciate it. I had my adrenals tested as well (saliva) - they were in pretty good shape, but my cortisol levels increased around 4:00 pm, so I've been on Seriphos to help my cortisol levels get back to a normal rhythm. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
