T4 cycle help please

[dazbo]

Hi,

I was wondering if you could answer a quick question for a friend of mine regarding the dosage of T4 please??

He has started using T4 and has been using it for the past 2weeks. He started off on 1tablet per day and is building up to 8 tablets and then tapering back off to one tablet at the end of the cycle.

It will last for 38days his cycle and his tablets are 75mcg per tab. What are your oppinions on this as all he is after getting from it is pure weight loss??

Thanks again and I appreciate your input, and I would like it if only those with plenty of knowledge on this posted please.

Thank you,

Darren

I can't find any info on T4.
Aside from the fact that it's a thyroid hormone derived from whichever 'stimulation'.

Can anyone link a profile?

[dazbo]

its under synthroid in the profiles section but theres not a lot of info on there.

thanks

I'm more interested in Var, vs. T4 and things alike, ie. Cytomel.

[dazbo]

var is a steroid and t4 and cytomel are thyroid hormones????

he will be loosing some muscle. ive never used T4 but ive used T3. and if t4 is a quarter as strong as t3 than ur buddy will be taking the equivilant to 150mcg of T3. i would say cut the dose in half. there are also alot of things to consider. is he juicing, is he just trying to make weight for something, is he just fat and want to be smaller. the list goes on know what i mean.

[dazbo]

Thanks for that reply peter.

Yeah I totally agree on the dose, well actually i think less than half the amount. And regarding the muscle loss I also agree. He isnt taking anything else at all, just the T4 alone and his goal is just purely to lose fat. Hes experienced in training etc and has a good base but just high BF that he wants to lose.

thanks again

actually 100mcg t4 = 50mcg t3 or converst to t3 in that value

so if you wanted to end with 100mcg of t3 you would need to consume 200mcg of t4 as the body will convert it to t3..

just taking t3 tends to suppress the body's on production more, and will take more muscle..
I'd comment more, but this is the 1st time i am running t4 instead of t3..

[peteroy01]

u sure its half man? ill look just in case

[dazbo]

thanks for the input.

[NotSmall]

I always thought that 100mcg T4 typically converted to around 25mcg T3.
