it is not necessarily a BAD idea persay, but there are risks involved..
-permanant thyroid problems
-rebound
when used correctly or under a doctor's supervision, t3 can be very effective at speeding up the thyroid. There will be fat loss, however there can also be muscle loss.. t3 has the tendency to eat through muscle just as fast, so a supplemental aas is common while on t3 in order to maintain muscle.. t3 can also be used with Clenbuterol as the Clen is anti-catabolic and will help to fight muscle loss to the t3. .
IMO, i would not personally suggest this be used for a woman who is having stubborn fat loss. . odds are the diet is off or training is not hard enough etc.. t3 IMO is really great for pre-contest..
But really it is weighing the risks to the benefits and it is a very personal decision.. Most women that have used t3 have experienced some sort of rebound once stopping.. even if you taper there is often rebound..
There are ways to work around it and help prevent rebound, but in all honesty, she must be super dedicated and hard working to prevent the rebound as it will take some work!
Hope that helps ya some
