[QUOTE="ivkonst2017, post: 208490, member: 42532"] Yes this is a replacement therapy and even if it doeasnt shut you down should be taken long term. So thats why I said first to check the mineral deficiencies but with such TSH no doubt you have some form of hypothyroidism that is either with or without Hashimoto. However we dont know to what extend because the most important thyroid reading is unknown. The optimal FT4 level is not clearly known and not so important as the optimal FT3 level which should be around top of the range. Yes some people may feel good with less, but its generally like testosterone - everyone needs different amount but if you have midrange values(not low) and have symptoms most likely you will benefit to some degree from raising it. Some guys or women on thyroud treatment even need to put the FT3 above the range to get full symptoms relief. Libido can be either from thyroid or testosterone or both together. Its better in such cases to start fixing first what looks worse. So far in your case there is a good chance that is the thyroid but the data is very little. [/QUOTE]
