Thyroid medication
by msjas, Feb 10, 2009 04:48PM
If my thyroid is on the low side and i am already on medication (synthroid) would my endo increase or decrease my medication. My symptoms of hypothyroidism returned, almost all of them which triggered me to retest. I was put on a low estrogen pill due to hormonal imbalance. My endo is decreasing my meds from .137 to .125. so with my thyroid on the low side would he need to increase or decrease? wanting a second opinion

Taking estrogen can cause you to need more thyroid medicine...so be on the look out for possible change in levels.
Was told they are 2 separate issues. My thyroid has been so uo and down lately some times I take more and other times I have had to take less. I feel that the 2 are related, what do you think???
