    Yes she confirmed it today. In the last 3 years, she got her period about 5 times, always spaced by a few months. Now she got it after 1 week on 25mcg of T3.

    Coincidence ? I think not.

    Also, that was the first time a woman told me "I just got my period" with a big smile

    That's indeed interesting and might suggest hypothyroidism was present if it normalizes. However, proper diagnosis would require a full thyroid panel while she's been off T3 for several weeks (like already advised by PT1982), and I 'm sorry to say this because I know myself how hard hypothyroidism is, but this can be done at any point in the future.

    More is not always the better and this is much more the case with thyroid than with AAS, where physiological equilibrium should be seek instead.

    Standard treatment is with T4, not T3, but optimal management is often to be achieved with a combination of the two, especially if she feels great on T3.

    A full, proper thyroid panel would include TSH, FT4 and FT3. The 'F' stands for "free". You always need to pull the free quotas of thyroid hormones, never the totals (referred as "T3" and "T4"), and be wary of docs scripting for these, they are plainly useless.

    The very first time only, I'd suggest to check thyroid antibodies for hashimotos thyroiditis (the most common etiology for hypothyroidism) - abTPO and abTG.
