cytomel hot flashes

I would mention the hot flashes to the doctor, but being 43, could be the problem. My hot flashes/night sweats actually slowed way down once I started on cytomel; but then I wasn't overly sensitive to it either - that could make a difference. That said, you might need to get all your levels tested again, because that could mean your FT3 is going too high.

I had my thyroid removed 2 yrs ago and am taking 137 mcg Synthroid Mon-Thur and half dose Fri-Sun. In the last month I have been dealing with almost constant hot flashes. Could there be a connection to the non thyroid condition or might something else be happening? I am 68 and way past the hot flash stage.

Hi. I had my thyroid removed due to stage 1 thyroid cancer. Ablation was Sept 2009. I am currently taking 137mcg of Synthroid, but notice some symptoms of Hypothyrodism. My blood work, according to my doctor is perfect T3, Free 381 T4, Free 1.6, TSH 3rd generation 0.12 (indicates hyper). He wants me to stay on the same dose. I am wondering if combining Synthroid with a T3 supplement (cytomel???) would help eliminate some of the hypothyroid symptoms I am having?

I am current taking 25mcg Cytomel daily in attempt to help with my depression, I had blood taken from my OBGYN this week b/c I was complaining of constant hot flashes and sweating so she wanted to check my hormone levels...my T4 free was 0.32, she has referred me to an endocrinologist. I tried telling her med tech that I was on Cytomel and asked if that would be why it was low but I was just told to see the specialist. I placed a call to my psychiatrist to ask him and still have not heard back.

tired, foggy, some hair loss, heavy, regular menstrual periods (but bleeding only 4 days)- all of my normal hypo symptoms but I have HOT FLASHES. Also, I am a nurse- I work 12 hours shifts. I have lots of retained fluid, especially in my legs and am up going to the bathroom all night. I rarely sleep well. Please help, I am feeling worse each month and gaining weight! My labs this week: TSH 0.45 L FT4 0.8 bottom of the range FT3 2.

Pregnancy night sweats are similar to hot flashes, although they take place during the night as a woman sleeps as opposed to hot flashes that occur during the day. Night sweats during pregnancy, which is also known as "nocturnal hyperhydrosis" during pregnancy occur because the body´s temperature gauge begins to malfunction as a result of hormonal imbalance that occurs during pregnancy.

Another tidbit is I am 51 and had my first bout of hot flashes a month ago. They were many times a day for 7 days straight but haven't had any since. My period is crazy but don't know if its thyroid or peri-menopause. I've been researching all of this online and am wondering if I could have adrenal fatigue, pituitary problem and/or estrogen dominance. I am expecting my doctor (gp) to call as soon as he gets the results.

Every time i do anything that exerts energy such as cleaning and then i go to lay down i get really bad hot flashes

I want to know if this causes hot flashes with normal glucose levels at the time? Or with high glucose levels? I get hot flashed quite frequently and my temp rises. Sometimes up to 99.1, other times lower. I am a male so menopause is out. I am on Humalog and Lantus for insulin. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Ive been experiencing extreme hot flashes the last few days. To the point where i have difficulty breathing. Very little seems to help. Has anyone else experienced this. Any suggestions on relief?

So I am 16 weeks and 7 days. This will be my first. I tend to have hot flashes. And at the moment my body feels like a really hot oven. I have a fan on and my feet out of the blanket. I is affecting me from trying to fall asleep.:( no question this just *****...

I got hot flashes first trimester. Now at almost 20 weeks I wake up every time in a full on sweat.

If you have any other symptoms, get checked for any virus or other sickness, but just hot flashes is usually normal. I have them, mostly at night, and our bedroom is in the basement where it's nice and freezing. Just stay hydrated and hopefully they let up. They should go away post pregnancy. Good luck!

Oh gosh. I feel for ya.

I'm 20 years old and 22 weeks pregnant and I get random hot flashes too lol they are annoying though because when I get hot my mood swings
