Re: no thyroid, lavh/bso. stopped HRT
I didn't have a thyroidectomy, but have been on thyroid replacement for the last 13 years. I also use HRT. Balancing the HRT with thyroid replacement is a difficult task. For example, I felt awful on synthroid (or generic) with any form of estrogen. They canceled each other out. I was moody, irritable, gained weight, etc. Had low thyroid symptoms.
However, on Armour thyroid, I do not have this issue. Plus I use progesterone at the same time as estrogen replacement. The combination of the 3 works well for me.
