I have been having classic hypothyroid symptoms... Low BBT of 97.4 throughout the day, constipation, lack of energy, leg rash, difficult periods, etc...,I am 44 and I am gluten intolerant. My doc did a TSH, it was 1.7. I had a panel run on my own which showed my TPO ab as 6, total T3 as 74 and my free T4 as 1.2. TPO is a little elevated as some ranges suggest that anything over 4 is symptomatic. The Total T3 is a little low. At this point, I am considering taking a Thyroid Support supplement which will boost my iodine, selenium and other useful minerals and then running tests again in 2 months. Does that seem to be a reasonable approach? Or should I be finding a doc who will prescribe a low dose of thyroid medication? Any advice would be appreciated.
