T3 questions

For one thing you don't want to go below 25mcg as the body is said to make close to this amount endogenously. Taking 10mg could cause your thyroid to stop making T3 and being below normal levels is not something we want.

i understand, jw becuz my rt3 is sky high and my doc is prescribing 10 mch a day to get it down, my t3 is really low

oh ok I gotcha. So your body is producing to much T3 so the doc is prescribing you 10mg to essentially shutdown your endogenous production of T3 so that the 10mg supplementation will help lower your levels...makes since.

Oops missed that...10mcg of t3 seems pointless as a normal functioning thyroid makes close to 25mcg.

yeah thats the thing, my thyroid is way underactive, just not sure if 10 mcg will burn any muscle or not
