Hi All,
23y.o. male.
Would really appreciate if anybody could interpret my labs and next course of action.
Current State & Symptoms:
- Temp varies but generally on the low side. Usually hover around 36.2.
- Pulse 68bpm.
- Good energy, sometimes brain fog, normal erections but low libido.
Lifestyle
- Active, walk around 8 miles a day, but also have an office job
- red light 20 mins per day and as much sunlight as the UK lets me
- weight train 3 times a week
- 70kg (11 Stone), mainly muscle, fairly lean around 12%
- Eat around 3000 kcal, 500g carbs, 50-75g Fat, 120g protein - all peaty. Mainly fruits/honey.
- Calcium hitting 1:1 ratio, mainly through eggshell calcium
I have just received my blood results from my latest visit to the endriconologist. I am currently taking 2 grains of NDT (1 pill of Nutripak) and the lab investigations are as follows:
- "he looked clinically euthyroid and comfortable at rest"?
- Blood pressure - 120/60 mmHg
- prolactin 138 mU/l (range 0-496)
- morning testosterone 12nmol/L (range 9-27)
- ft4 13.3 pmol/L (range 10.5-24.5)
- TSH 4.7 mU/L (0.3-4)
- rest of blood investigations including FBC and Vitamin D were satisfactory
Endriconologist suggestions:
- Up levothyroxine to 125 mg daily
* i need to note hear i switched to NDT on my own accord and have not been taking levothyroxine. I wanted the T4/T3 combination.
May I ask for help; what is my next course of actions.
- Upping NDT?/ Switching back to T4 only?
- Increasing calories?
- Supplements? (iodine?/ pregnenolone)
- Lowering activity?
Many thanks all.
