Got bloodwork done. Everything else looks great. except

My Iodine was a little Low and Estrogen High.

Iodine 51 52-109
Estrogen 139 130 or less



FSH 2.2 1.6-8.0
LH 2.8 1.5-9.3
Total Test 500 250-1100
Free Test 82.5 35.0-155.0

TSH 1.90 0.40-4.50
T4 8.7 4.5-12.0
T3 100 76-181



Never done a cycle or anything. Experimented with various natty supplements.

I also have a auto immune disease so wasn't expecting high test numbers to begin with.

Test was done around 12pm

Was thinking of maybe giving Inhibit E and P a run to lower the Estrogen a little and taking 12.5 of iodine.

Thoughts?

What else of my results should I include?
 
Iodine is commonly known to be low in some people. So i wouldnt wurry too much about that. As far as estrogen its kind of the same some peoples are high or lower. But inhibit e and p would both be good products to supplement in. I actually just got a bottle of inhibit e. Planning on using it here soon.

didn't see the reference range for the e2... saw 139 and assumed it was a different range from my labs (1-30) which if that were the case, my reaction was... uhh, go to the Dr. ASAP

His doctor ordered total estrogen and not estradiol. Your lab range looks like you had estradiol, sensitive done.
 
Inside joke. I'm in the minority here as far as exploring supplemental iodine due to low intake "out in the world", as well as Halide (Bromine) and perchlorate competition.

I actually laughed myself because the joke is on you. A blood iodine test is only indicative of iodine deficiency in the presence of low thyroid function. This is because iodine is chiefly stored in the thyroid and only a small amount is actually released into the blood. This is similar to how low blood iron =/= iron deficiency, but low blood iron + low ferritin (the storage form) = iron deficiency.

Since OP has normal thyroid function, he is not iodine deficient, But alas, I guess if you really want to believe something, medical knowledge won't change your view.
 
Im gonna side with coop here...your bloodwork looks fine.

Actually, I agree with you, having just read about that test - I have no problem admitting mistakes. I still stand by everything else.

OP, if you're not tired all the time, and your waking temps are in the 97's, I'd just salt my food directly, and take a Multi with 150-225mcg of Iodine/Day.

If you are any of the above, report back.
