thyroid test and results
I just went to the doctor to have a blood test done. I was having a problem w/thinning hair, constantly tired, memory loss & if I weren't working out all the time, easy weight gain....etc. He found that I have an underactive thyroid. I'm 24, 5'3", weigh about 115 & have 11% b.f.
My question is, does anyone have any experience w/taking synthroid & an ECA? I would like to get down a little more body fat & need a little help...I don't want to take the ECA if it's gonna give me a heart attack or something along w/the synthroid. If anyone has any suggestions?
Thanks

Hey angel,
If your doctor has already found an underactive thyroid, then my honesty suggestion is to go under a doctor's supervision and treatment.. This means yes the synthetic t3 or T4 whichever he prescribes for your particular condition..
ECA is no longer available over the counter as it is illegal now due to FDA regulations.. however it WILL have an effect on blood pressure, and your central nervous system rather than your thyroid.. There should not be an interaction there.. but too much can cause heart problems..
a common stack for losing bodyfat while on t3 therapy is Clenbuterol due to its anti-catabolic properties.. meaning that you will lose the weight while maintaining muscle..
hope that helps a bit

My ex-wife had the same problem. You should really do what the doc says. My ex did not and now has all kinds of problems including massive weight gain. She has finally started taking her meds.

I also have an underactive Thyroid, and currently am taking Synthroid along with Clen. I have the exact symtoms you did, tired, gaining wieght.
But just a question, if you are at 11% BF how much could you possible want to loose? That is pretty much ideal already. Are you sure that is what it is at, you had it measured or is it just an estimation?

Hi Angel, Replacing thyroid in a hypothyroid person essentially gets them back to "baseline": in other words, where a normal, euthyroid person would be, metabolically speaking. Your risk with ephedrine or any other beta adrenergic agonists should be no more than anyone else. 11% BF? Pretty low for a woman. How far down do you want to go? BD Quote:

Thanks to all of you for the answers, it's much appreciated. My B.F. ranges between 11 to 12.5%. There's a trainer at my gym that measures it for me every few weeks. I don't want to loose to much more, I'm just having a little issue w/my abs popping out & the bottom of my butt. Other than that, I'm pretty happy. I've worked hard to get where I'm at & would like to just be happy w/every part of my body.
I do tons of crunches (lots of different forms) & work my legs & butt about every other day. Any suggestions?
Thanks for all the help,
Angel
