    T4 w/ HGH Question

    I've been on HGH for about 8 weeks now. After reading I'm thinking I want to add in some T4. My question is that from what I've read I would like to start out at 25mcg/day. The package of 10 pills state on the back T4-100ug. They are very small almost pink/orange color. Is it safe to assume that each pill is 100mcg and would I need to cut a single pill into 4??? For whatever reason I think they are 25mcg each but I'm not doing anything until I'm 100% sure. Any feedback on these would be appreciated. The back of the foil says T4-100ug (uni-pharma) and Levothyroxine Sodium 100ug.

    Thanks guys! I hope I didn't give too much detail (sorry if I did).

    25mcg of t4 is useless ....100mcg t4 is would equal your bodies normally produced amount of t3....

    Thank you--

    Have you found there to be any side effects taking 100mcg of T4 daily and do you cycle it?

    Thanks again--

    natural production of T4 is around 75mcg per day i believe

    so taking 100mcg is also pretty pointless since u are supressing your thyroid for only an additional 25mcg per day

    I should give more info. I have been Hypothyroid since 2004 and I take 300 mcg a day. The pills cannot be cut. I would start low and work up and dont use over a month without getting your thyroid checked. I wasnt lucky and had to start at 125mcg a day and was bumped up 100mcg a week till I got to 300mcg a day. Side affects are great, if your throat tightens up like you feel like you are being chocked stop. Expect acne and hair growth, you will have a fast and stong heart beat if you move to fast bumping up mcg. 25mcg would work for a week and bump it up to 50mcg. If I werent hypothyroid I wouldnt go over a 100mcg a day.
