Cytomel T3 Medication
I have hypothyroidism for 10 years and it turned to Hashimoto's in the last 2 years. I am using medicine for it and my TSH and T4 hormones are in balance now but T3 is too low. (1.64 on the last test). I’m already taking zinc and selenium supplements, but they haven’t helped. It’s clear that my body can’t convert T4 into T3, yet not a single endocrinologist has prescribed T3 for me. I’m currently a student in New York.
After doing very detailed research through ChatGPT and forums, I found platforms like Push Health and Paloma Health. I’ve never used anything like this before — are there people who have used these services? Can I actually get a T3 prescription through them, and are they reliable?
On the other hand, I’ve found a few online pharmacies (like Arrowmeds and Classic Derma) where I can apparently order Cytomel equivalents, such as Shytomel and Linorma (I think), without a prescription.
In your opinion, which is the better path to take?
I’ve discussed dosage with ChatGPT and it seems that 5 mcg per day would be sufficient.
