Reverse T3 Dominance Treatment

Reverse T3 dominance treatment should be done under the care of a health

practitioner who understands this condition.

Treatment of this thyroid problem usually involves prescribing active T3 and

Armour Thyroid, a naturally derived thyroid extract. This reduces the symptoms

of low thyroid function and will also slow TSH production. This in effect

reduces the bodies own production of T4.

With little or no T4 left in the system reverse T3 production eventually

decreases. Further, the conversion of T4 into T3 will then no longer be

inhibited by the reverse T3 allowing the appropriate activation of T4 into the

active T3 form.

It is important that T4 (thyroxine) medication is not used alone for this

condition. Supplemental T4 may also convert to reverse T3, further driving this

thyroid hormone imbalance.

The contributing health factors should also be addressed, with treatment more

effective when all aspects of your health are addressed.

Treatment also includes getting plenty of rest, eliminating as much emotional

stress as possible, performing moderate exercise for stress control and avoiding

foods that damage the thyroid
