1. mcg not mg.T3 in low dosage how long can you run.. 10 to 15mg... and can you cycle back up to 100mg of it..
You can run it for as long as you want. Some of the more recent studies I have read state that you don't have to taper or "ramp" your doses up or down and you can stop using it it whenever you want without having to risk "shocking" your thyroid. From my readings, the whole discussion about shocking your thyroid by using too much or by not tapering on/off is a complete myth. I do not have the links to those studies....but I could probably find them again if you really want me to.

Normal values can range from 0.4 - 4.0 mIU/LThat number was before I ran anything so do I have a thyroid issue from the start?

The vast majority of labs and doctors report a TSH of 2.1 as normal. His TSH measured fine.
Test | Lab Low | Optimal Range | Lab High |
---|---|---|---|
TSH | 0.5 | 1.3-1.8 | 5.0 |
Free T4 | 0.8 | 1.2-1.3 | 1.8 |
Free T3 | 230 | 320-330 | 420 |
Free T3* | 2.3 | 3.2-3.3 | 4.2 |
*Some labs divide FT3 results by 100 thus 230 is the same as 2.3, etc. |
In post #10 you posted that his TSH was high. I agree there's debate on the ranges but his is not high according to virtually ever lab on the planet. =)I didn't say it wasn't within "normal" lab range
without knowing his free and total t4 and t3 its a pretty useless number...like I said, its a pituitary number that doesn't have a lot of practical relevance to how ones thyroid is actually functioning
that said, if I read anything higher than .5 on tsh my Dr would kook...but my circumstances are unique
Recovery of pituitary thyrotropic function after withdrawal of prolonged thyroid-suppression therapy.So I am fine to cycle t3 as needed ? I have been reading that I can. I have been off the small dosage since first of jan and I want to run 100mcg starting in feb again. I just don't want to screw up my thyroid.

What dose did you use last time? At 100mcg muscle loss will be severe, unless you run a good combo of AAS combined with a very high protein diet of at least 2.5g/lbs.
this, but anytime someone asks me about thyroid dosing I always have them taper off because there are a few bumps when you stop taking it.
HOWEVER, my sister is a jerk off about her thyroid meds ..forgets to take them...takes them whenever..takes too much at once and her bloods always come back good
she has hashimotos though
