I've noticed that my skin dries out pretty quickly when I'm not using T3. What would be the cause?

I notice it mostly on my forehead and forearms.

Thanks

dry skin is a classical hypo symptom. how long youve been off t3? could take 2 weeks or more to get the thyroid running again after quitting exogenous t3

I had been off it for a couple of weeks. Stopping had just led to a return of previous symptoms.

My free T4 levels have tested mid range so I think I have a T4/T3 conversion problem
