[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 157195, member: 15043"] First off, trialing T4 only therapy is pretty pointless. It’s almost impossible to get optimal on T4 only therapy. Second, you have nothing to worry about with your low TSH. Having a low TSH has no negative health effects as long as you’re on exogenous thyroid medication. Any health problems you are referencing, in regards to low TSH, is in people that naturally have a low TSH. Having a low TSH while on thyroid medication is the same thing as having very low LH and FSH on TRT. Neither is anything to worry about. So no need to stress about it. Just make sure you get on either NDT, synthetic T4/T3 combo, or T3 by itself. You’re never going to feel great on T4 by itself. It’s not even worth getting labs done on T4 only therapy, imo. But if you do get labs done, obviously get a full panel done. Getting just TSH and free T4 done is about as pointless as it gets. [/QUOTE]
