[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 100431, member: 16042"] My understanding is that taking exogenous thyroid suppresses pituitary response/TSH like exogenous T suppresses LH, so as your thyroid gland decreases production, you may need to increase dosage. Especially when starting or changing dosages, just like starting TRT, you might expect honeymoon phases before your physiology evens out. Another aspect with exogenous T4 is whether your body actually does or does not convert it to usable T3. In my case, we started on 1/2grain and increased to 1 grain of NDT. This is proportionally more T3 than T4 so quite different than using T4 alone. [/QUOTE]
