^^^^ Summed up ^^^^

I'm also led to believe that heavy androgens slow the thyroid down. This was also evident in my blood work, but I am not 100% certain. I use it near the end of cycles to stave fat as I come off and start lowering the dose.

Androgens do slow the thyroid, in some cases quite a bit to the point that supplementing T3 is needed.  My blood work as always shown this so I use 25mcgs of T3 ED while doing heavy cycles and whenever I'm doing GH of course.

Interesting... do you ramp up to .75mcg? or just cruise at .25 all the way through? .25 is just enough to shut down your natural production, I don't know how much more help it would actually do in terms of weight/fat loss.

Anyone got any good data on how fast your thyroid levels bounce back after stopping use?  I've heard from guys I know that have years of experience with it and have done their bloodwork regularly that its a matter of days...similar to GH.

Just cruise at 25mcg.  The body prodcues about 12.5-25mcg daily so I just keep it at 25mcg ED as a supplemental dose.
