I just started taking it today for hypothyroid and was wondering if others here are taking it. If so how long have you been taking it? Has it helped? Have you experienced any of the side-effects, if so how bad were they? I felt like throwing it back up as soon as it went down, is that normal?
Answer:
There are no side effects to Levothyroxin but you will start to feel better. I took it for years but have recently been switched to Armour Thyroid.
Be sure you doctor is giving you the right medication because there are several out there that have T3 or T4 or combination thereof.
It is important to know what your are deficient in.
Do not eat soy products. It blocks thyroid medication and will make you even more ill. I had a terrible time and lost a lot of my hair because the doctors did not tell me not to eat soy and I was eating it to avoid symptoms of menopause
I have been on it for five years and have had no problems it starts working after they get your thyroid leveals were they are suposed to be
