Sorry

No - it shouldn't bring that on.

BUT ( always a but) LOL

( not butt - but - but)  - Too early today - sorry  :)

If the system is sped up ( and T3 meds will do this) then you could have loose stool.

We're you constipated prior at all?

Being hypothyroid will slow the GI track down alot. and can cause a host of issues.

If your body is responding well to Armour and things are getting on track again - you may be emptying out.

To get your intestines back to where they need to be it is really good to look into a probiotic and stay on them for quite a while.
