If you frequent other boards you may have run across a thread debating the use of thyroid meds, and which thyroid meds, while running GH.
After sifting through the thread earlier and then doing my own research, I'm still about as clear as mud on whether or not to use T3, T4, or a combo of the two while running my GH.
The basics that I am getting are that if you want pure growth, then you shouldn't take any thyroid meds because they interfere with IGF-1 production. If you want to lose significant bodyfat and decrease some of the sides associated with GH use, such as water retention, carpal tunnel, and lethargy, then one should take T3 or T4 (depending on which study you read and whose theory you buy into).
On the particular thread I'm speaking of, there were a few different studies that showed conflicting conclusions based on contradictory results. I am far from a medical professional, so I'm going to post up a few of these studies so that ATW, Shine, GS, Mayo, and all the other guys/gals who have an affinity for medical studies can help me.
Thanks in advance.
