Thank you Chris!
Sorry, it appears I misspoke -- the Armour says 1 grain (60mg) with each tab = 38 T4, 9 T3.
In light of my docs 125 T4/ 25 T3 prescription, jumping right to 3 tablets of Armor wouldn't be wise?
As an aside, is the Erfa form of Armour any better now or still problematic?
A friendly bump?
A bottle of 60-grain Armour -- Were I to replace 125 T4, 25 T3, what would be the equivalency?
Would there be any reason/rational for doing a few months of "natural" sups, then a few months of synthetic meds?
Thanks again
Thanks everyone.
So I have a bottle of 60-grain Armour.
Were I to replace 125 T4, 25 T3, what would be the equivalency?
Would there be any reason/rational for doing a few months of "natural" sups, a few months of synthetic meds?

Yes, I was already 100 T4 and 20 T3. They were taken the day of the blood draw. Though I have heard that a T3 I had been using was over dosed (research chems)....at the time of this draw thought they were pharmaceutical from Europe.
Agreed about the E2. I since cut way down -- to basically never!
Thank you for the prompt and courteous response.
T: 584 (348-1197)
Free T: 11 (6.8-25)
Estradiol: 8 (3-70)
TSH: 3.07 (.45-4.5)
Rev-T3- 8.9 (9.2-24)
T3- 2.0 (2.0-4.4)
T4- .91 (.82-1.77)
I currently have about 3 months worth of my meds then have to "re-up."
Warm Regards,

Hey Chris & All,
Currently on TRT (by physician, not my own diagnosis)
180 mg T a week, divided; 25 mg DHEA a day, .5 mg Anaztrazole/wk, and 500 iu HCG 3 times a week).
I'm also on thyroid medication, after a full panel and thyroid antibodies check.
T3 & T4 were both low, so doc set me on...
Hey Nelson,
Been on TRT for a while now and finally achieved my ideal dose -- around 160mg/week seems to put me in the top end of normal.
Thing is, I have a photo shoot planned for a business venture and would like to dial things in a bit.
I'd like to add a compound to my TRT for 6-8 weeks...
