It's been great for me. My first LLMD had me try it but it was way too low of a dose which could cause further problems. I think it was 2 or 2.5mg daily.
I see a bio-identical hormone replacement doctor and am so glad I took that step. Currently I'm taking it four times per day. 20-30mg first thing in the morning, 15-10-5.
It helps me tremendously with fatigue. Based on symptoms mainly, my BHRT doc diagnosed me with hypothyroidism. The Armour Thyroid also has made a big difference.
Be sure you get proper dosages. I've seen three LLMDs one being "a top LLMD" and none of them were/are good with this area.
Good luck
