Re: Update on my dose cutting in half to 60 mg a week

Do the tests for thyroid in this link.

As for your T labs you have the names backwards Free T is never in this range

200 to

900.

Yes some times lowering your dose will help one feel better but going half your

feeling OK now but look out for starting to feel bad it takes some time for your

body to adjust to the new lower levels.

I just went from 100 mgs every 3 days to 70 mgs the way my Dr. told me to do

this was to do 70mgs then back up to 80 mgs then down to 70 mgs to cut back on

the fast rebound effect I was having from high estradiol levels. I did my labs

they went from the 900's to the mid 600's I settled on 80 mgs and uppped my HCG

shots do far I am doing fine.

As for having both low Testosterone and Thyroid I would have treated them both.

I have yet to talk to anyone going on Thyroid getting leveled to see if there

Testosterone would come up. I have not see this yet.

One guy was at 255 for TT going on Thyroid meds first his TT went up to 350 I

think this would have happened not treating Thyroid but his Dr. told him to give

it 3 more months.

He did and his next test was lower then his first 255 test so all he did was

suffer all that time.
