I wanted to ask If you guys think that taking 1/2 grain 30mg of armour would suppress my thyroid, Ive been taking this amount for 3 days now and feel great more energy ,clearer mind. My concern is suppressing my thyroid and having to take thyroid medication for ever, but I feel alot better . my results were
T3 Total 71 60-181
T3 uptake 35 % 24-39
Thyroxine (T4) 6.2 4.5-12.0
TSH 1.918 0.350-5.500
T4 free 1.0 0.8-1.8
Free T4 Index (T7) 2.1 1.4-3.8
cortisol 12.4 3.1-22.4

test total 915
estradiol 24
freet 22.5
I was always feeling cold before and fatigue , lack of concentration etc... I plan to fly over to visit dr john In a month or so not sure If I should continue armour?

Your TT is probably bit high.
It would help if you could get from Quest Diagnostics test for
Free, Bioavailable, and Total Testosterone
Testosterone, LC/MS/MS from Quest Diagnostics

also freeT3

Make sure you have Cortef near by when you are taking Armour.

Where is your Shbg at it could reveal a hidden estrogen problem because if its elevated and you do not know it then estrogen binds to the corticol receptors sites resuilting in low free cortisol I am starting to think that people that have normal adrenal blood work and low free urine or cortisol levels are probably low progesterone, estrogen dominant (undermethyators), altered estrogen metabolis BAD:good estrogens are out of wack.
