Thyroid glandular disorders, including hypothyroidism, can cause significant physical symptoms, such as fatigue, weight gain, and dry skin. Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones to regulate body temperature. The thyroid gland is responsible for regulating metabolism, immune function, and mood.
Thyroid hormones are a vital hormone for maintaining normal bodily functions. They are used to manage symptoms of hypothyroidism, such as fatigue, weight gain, dry or cracked skin, and weight loss. Synthroid, a synthetic form of levothyroxine, is the most widely prescribed form of thyroid hormone replacement.
Synthroid works by regulating the thyroid hormone levels in the body. It does this by replacing the missing thyroxine (T4) with the active T3 hormone, which then binds to the receptors on the thyroid gland. This leads to a reduction in activity and a slowdown in the production of thyroid hormones.
Synthroid comes in three doses: 25, 50, and 100 mcg. The typical starting dose is 25 mcg, but the dosage may be adjusted based on individual response and tolerance.

Hi family,
I'm new to this forum and I'm considering using FamilyHelp. Can you post specific information about your condition? If so, how long has it been since it was available? I've heard it's a bit long for my wallet and I'm not sure if I should get rid of the tablet, but it's been available in a few pharmacies recently and I think it's pretty standard for me.
Regarding constipation, I've heard it may help with constipation. I've tried some of the tablets and they didn't seem to have much effect, and I'm not sure if I should return them.
Thanks,
Syd
I'm on levothyroxine and I have been on it for about 10 years. I have loose stools, and it helps with constipation. I usually take the tablet with a large glass of water. Do you recommend drinking plenty of water to help with constipation?
Yes, I do recommend drinking plenty of water. This will help with constipation and also improve heartburn. If you want to try a lower dose (which I haven't heard of in my experience), try this:
That being said, I also find that the tablet can help with a dry mouth, but if it's taken on an empty stomach or after a meal, it's unlikely that it will cause constipation. Try eating foods that are high in fibre and high in leafy greens.
Would you recommend a different type of tablet or food to take when you get back from a meal?
Yes, this will help with constipation and improve heartburn. The main thing I've tried is a soy-free/chicken-free diet, which is a great way to reduce constipation. I've found that I don't get constipated as much as I used to and it's been a gamechanger for my heartburn. I try a few different combinations, and they always work out as one.
Would you recommend that you avoid foods that are high in lactose, such as:
I've found that it's much better when I eat at the same time each day.
