Re: Can RT3 cause Hair Loss?

December 30, 2009

I have not had my Ferritin tested, but I did call my doctor before Christmas and

asked for the test, he never called me back. I have an appointment with him on

Monday Jan 4. Should I ask him for any other tests?

Below are my adrenal and thyroid results.

T4, Free Direct 1.02 0.61 - 1.76

TSH 0.942 0.450 - 4.500

Free T3 2.7 2.3 - 4.2

Reverse T3 362 H pg/ml 90 - 350

Adrenal

7:00 0.310 0.025 - 0.600

12:00 0.010 < 0.010 - 0.330

4:00 0.019 0.010 - 0.200

11:00 < 0.010 < 0.010 - 0.090

I'm having trouble finding things on this forum, it took me all day to find if I

received any responses to my post.

I feel I should get something to boost my adrenals. I just tried Isocort, but I

didn't like the way it made me feel. I only took two pellets yesterday and I

was awake all night. I also think I should be taking T3. I did order cynomel,

but I'm not crazy about self medicating myself. I'm just tired of going from

one doctor to another and everyone of them said my lab results are normal.

With your cortisol labs I kind of doubt Isocort would be stroing enough

for you but you could try a MUCH high er dose of it. When you take meds

containing cortisol it lowers ACTh adn when we have adrenal fatigu ethe

pituitary si voer sensitive ot coritls so it lowers it LOT causing you

to go even lower later in the day so you MUST take 4 doses to feel

better when takign it. I would suggest dosing 4 pellets in the Am then

in four hours three pellets then four hours 2 pellets and 1 at bedtime.

Thsi mimicks cortils natiural rythm and may help you.
