Does anyone notice a difference switching from Nature-throid to Armor thyroid?

I take 1 grain of NDT every morning. I've always gotten Nature-throid (65mg) but for some reason this time the pharmacy sent me Armor (60mg) instead.

I'm feeling more fatigued than usual, but I also just changed my testosterone and anastrozole doses. I'm wondering how likely it is that the change in thyroid meds is causing this?

Has anyone here switched between Armor and Nature-throid at the same dosage? Did you notice any difference?
 
Yeah, Armour changed hands a few years back, and honestly many have had some complaints since Activas bought it from Forest Labs.

Additionally, 1 grain isn't much, I'd be curious what your labs say? Some better results might be achieved with splitting morning and early afternoon as well, 2/3 AM, 1/3 at or after lunch.
 
My wife was on Nature Throid and having great results. That product is now back ordered so they switched her to Armour Thyroid. It is terrible compared to the Nature one. Stomach cramps, fatigued all the time, said she feels like she has the flu. She is anxious to get back on the Nature product as soon as it is available.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
