Problem with T4 is you never know how much is actually working. Can never be exactly sure how much being converted to T3. As the Viking said, better off going straight T3.
 
misconseption on T4 is that it converts to t3. t4 stimulates the production of t3.

I have a friend ( ecfatcat ) that's been on t4 for 10 years he hates the stuff but has to take it. he's hypo he tries to go off every once in a while ....he starts getting crazy after a month or so. Take the t3 if your tring to burn fat ..your going to burn muscle too......
 
Hey ecf, what is the common name for t4? Just wondering because my wife takes something for a thyroid condition and I was just wondering if it was the same stuff..
