    Testostrone + Synthroid for weight Loss

    HI Guys,

    Here is my question and I apologize if it is a stupid one. To loose fat wouldnt higher testostrone level and Synthroid help? My understanding is high thyroid levels can put ur motablism in high drive.I guess other question is hw dangerous it is to have high thyroid level.My wife have low thyroids so I have access to the synthroid.

    Thanks in advance for your responces.

    well... you could get a thyroid disorder by using meds, but thats just guessing... and yes it would help but it would also increase ur metabolism to much to where it would consume muscle protein also... but thats all i can say... i know i had someone i know get a thyroid disorder cause of what he cycles... but, truthfully i couldnt say...

    Yes.

    It would help.

    The higher testosterone level would also assist in promoting higher muscle retention in the presence of a caloric deficit.

    The 'danger' is related to the dose and duration.

    Doses like 200-300 mcg of Synthroid daily for 8-12 weeks are 'moderate' IMO...and effective.

    Could you? Yep.

    Should you?

    That'd depend on your goals...and your level of education on the compounds you wish to use.

    Read as much as you can mate.

    Good luck.
