1715474 tn?1318189449 Hi, Im 20 years old and my fiance and I are trying to conceive and I have not yet become pregnant. I am afraid that due to my hypothyroid i may not be ovulating. I am currently almost 2 weeks late and had one positive urine test and two negative ones. I had a blood test done and that was negative as well. I'm on levothyroxine but only 25mcg. My doctor has been monitoring my TSH levels for almost a year now and has not altered my dosage. Could my thyroid be affecting my fertility?

Avatar f tn I am 8 days past ovulation and 6 days till my next period. Could this be caused by low hormone levels?implantation bleeding? I am just not sure I have never ever had any type of spotting before my period is due. Thanks in advance!
2104473 tn?1354484497 m 19 years old and had irregular periods from the age of 14 and they have just started to settle down and vary from 28-32 days. i have all the fertility tests (Laparascopy, ovulation, scans) they have all come back normal. ive been trying to conceive since March this year, but still had no luck.
Avatar f tn Another good one is Tirosint, which is a gelcap and contains only glycerine, water, Levothyroxine and gelatin. Tirosint tends to be the most expensive, but the manufacturer has programs for those who qualify. Is TSH the only thyroid related blood test that's being performed regularly? What about Free T4 and Free T3? Those are the actual thyroid hormones.
Avatar f tn Thanks so much for that. I've always been temping and charting to track my ovulation, and when I started my medication, I haven't skipped a cycle. The periods started off normal, then got increasingly lighter, which made me wonder what was going on.
Avatar m tn hey docs. i was treated recently for ngu and a testi infection. 750 mg of levaquen for 28 days. but this is what i read. The selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) sertraline (ZOLOFT), widely prescribed for depression, has been associated with a decrease in the effect of levothyroxine. i take zolaft 100 mg daily. i still have testi pain and burning. i am now bieng treated with diflucan for 7 days for a yeast infection. should i be worried. do u think my ngu was wiped out.
Avatar f tn To reduce the risk of an error, prescribers should print all orders for Lanoxin and levothyroxine and include the purpose for each drug on all prescriptions. Both the mg dose and the mcg conversion should be listed in all levothyroxine orders and on product labels, such as "levothyroxine 100 mcg (0.1 mg)" or "Synthroid 0.1 mg (100 mcg).
Avatar n tn levothyroxine and foot and toe cramps. Existing damage to lumber due to spinal infection that tumored and surround spinal cord and root nurves.
Avatar f tn But my appt with him is next week and I will tell him I want t3 and t4 test besides TSH.. I have stopped the levothyroxine for this past week and my hips are really feeling alot better..so I am thinking it has something to do with that med.
649688 tn?1276871161 I take 50mg of levothyroxine for a border line underactive. Have no ovaries or womb and settled on HRT years ago as a result. Have never ever had bad skin. Until 5 - 6 months after taking Levothyroxine. The amount I take has stopped the terrible frightening symptoms I had. All of my family and friends and myself are so happy that I am now 'normal'. But what about this acne at 43 years of age ?????
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm 19 years old and I have Hypothyroidism. I've been on Levothyroxine since December and my dosage is currently 125mg daily. QUESTIONS: What tests can I request my family doctor to do on me? Could these lingering symptoms be caused by depression? By anemia? By vitamin deficiencies? By inadequate thyroid medication dosage?
Avatar f tn But this week my weight started shooting up again my stomach is bloated and I am getting headaches and feeling very dizzy . I checked my blood pressure in cvs and it came to 140/100 which i understand is stage 1 hypertension. I haven't had hypertension before. Is his bcoz of levothyroxine ? I have my next appointment only in June. Will it be advisable to check with my doctor before that.
Avatar f tn I had my blood tested and then retested for hypothyroidism. MY TSH was 5.6 the first time. This last test included a T3 and T4 profile. I do not know what these last results were, but my PCP put me on 25 mcg of levothyroxine (after the results of this last test). I had a bout with AFib last year (just the one time) and they think it was caused by anxiety. One of the side effects of the levothyroxine is irregular heartbeat.
1685558 tn?1305388557 My father took 150 micrograms levothyroxine for a year and was 150 micrograms of TSH, T3 and T4 normal, but now has a very low TSH and normal T3 and T4. The doctor lowered the dose of levothyroxine and will now take a dose of 100 micrograms, like me, that I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis, but I'm so much thinner and smaller than him. Is this normal? The doctor asks only TSH, T4 and T3, should not ask ultrasonography and thyroglobulin?
332168 tn?1201026915 Currently I take 137 of Levothyroxine and 25 mcg of Cytomel. I was taking a half tablet in the morning and once in the early afternoon, but I couldn't manage to remember to take the afternoon dose in a timely fashion, and sometimes was kept up at night. I asked my doctor about just upping the Levo and dropping the cytomel, but he seems to think that it's best I'm on both. So I now take the entire dose in the morning and I find this works great for me.
Avatar n tn I am 50 years old and have been taking Levothyroxine .175 mcg for several years now. My latest TSH was 0.2. Do I now have hyperthyroidism. Does this explain why I have been having increased sweating, poor memory and poor thought process. Also having alot of aches and soreness in my knees and hands.
Avatar n tn Is it OK to use phentermine and levothyroxine together? If not what diet medications are safe to use with levothyroxine? I suffer with such low energy, even though my levels are good.
822804 tn?1298226302 I have been diagnosed with having a hypothyroid and have been taking levothyroxine for 6 weeks(75mcg's) - how long does it take to see relief with weight.I have gained 20 lbs and have only lost 5lbs since I have started the levothyroxine but my weight is still fluxuating- this past week I have been gaining again even though I still continue my diet and exercise routine.Is there any hope for weight loss?
Avatar f tn I have been taking levothyroxine to treat my thyroid problem, I am up to 125mcg. I find no side affects listed about skin problems, but I sure am having them. Anyone have any input?
Avatar f tn I had blood work done twice to check (and then recheck to make sure) that I had hypothyroidism My first reading was 5.6. She then ordered the full thyroid screen including T3 ad T4 profiles and put me on 25 mcg of Levothyroxine daily. I don't know the level in last blood test. I took the first one today. I had an episode of AFib one year ago (anxiety related). On this dosage I was told chances are very low that it will bring on AFib.
Avatar m tn I have another question regarding Levothyroxine. I've been on it for 5 weeks now and for the most part the only positive difference I've noticed is having more energy. The cons of things I've been feeling are muscle pains, menstrual cycle changes and digestion. Can Levothyroxine cause constipation or mess up your digestion in any way? I've been having a lot of abdominal pain for the past week and my stomach is just gurgling really loudly when I eat.
474189 tn?1211184460 Have recently been diagnosed with Hashi and have started on levothyroxine but I have noticed since I started taking it that I get chronic heartburn - especially at night making it difficult to sleep, but it attacks me at any time of the day and it gets so bad I just want to curl up in a ball and tell the world to go away ! Does anyone have this problem, is it a common side affect, will it stop as my body gets used to taking the meds or should I be revisiting my GP?
Avatar f tn That's really hard to predict since we all react very differently to meds. It takes four to five weeks for a dose to stabilize in your system since T4 builds up over time (of course, your levels should be improving during this time, so some symptoms may be relieved). It can also take a while for your body to heal if you've suffered any damage from being hypo. So, you should be retested in about five weeks.
Avatar m tn I take levothyroxine 1/2 hour before my early morning run and have noticed sometimes heart disturbances in the later in the day... I am not sure if levothyroxine is too blame or should I wait 1 hour before doing my running? Currently take 150mg x3 and 100mg x 4 per week and TSH 0.18 Have you experience the same thing? I'm 43 and don't want to damage my heart!
