Wife pregnant after supplementing T3
-
I'm not sure if it's a memory or an assumption that he does this at all. There's no harm in asking him earnestly, including the subject. He might just talk on the subject for 'free'.

My wife was anovulatory for 2.5 years. The only thing that restored her cycle was 50mcg of T3. She’s now pregnant. I’ve read that T3 can’t cross the placenta and that T4 is necessary, but I’ve also read of women having healthy pregnancies after taking t3 only.
Has anyone had a healthy baby after taking t3 only? I’m very nervous to change her dose but also worried about not adding T4.
This is wonderful.
To be safe I wouldn’t take more than 4 or 5 mcg per hr, since that’s around the physiological amount.
Not sure about the t4 placenta thing.
Sounds right that t3 only can lead to healthy pregnancies, since a healthy liver converts t4 to t3 anyways so it can be used.Here are some times ray peat answered people’s questions on t3 and t4:

- Your wife's metabolism lacked energy and perhaps useful molecules / nutrients.
No procreation allowed when this is present. Species protection. - Your wife can make her own T4 if she gets the right nutrients for deiodinase enzymes.
- Too much of a good thing is bad if we can't convert T4 to T3 due to a lack.

Hope those help.
Again, I wouldn’t take more than 4 or 5 mcg per hr, since that’s around the amount the body normally produces per hour (If I really wanted to take more i would take 4 or 5 mcg/hr several times a day rather than all at once)
Above all It’s important to go by how one feels. If i got jittery I’d stop and then when restarting make sure i took it less frequently, ie a lower total amount per day.
