Ive been taking 50mcg t3 for about 12-13 weeks right now, I am 4 weeks before the first of a series of contests witch I will do in a row and I am allready in shape , thus no longer requiring the T3.
The problem is it takes some time after taking t3 and a diet with carbs for thyroid levels to go back up and beeing that Im still in precontest, the carbohydrate numbers are and will remain low for some time ( doing 3-4 shows in a row).
Also if I cut it out, low levels of tyroid hormones are asociated with water retention and less protein synthesis , and If I rebound hard on the low carb diet that Im following, the water retention is a no no for the shows I will do.
Also exogenus t3 makes me flat witch is bad right now as I dont need it anymore and is eating my muscles for nothing ( I use a very low dose of gear)
What do you guys sugest? Staying on a "trt" dose like 25-12,5mcg t3 / day untill I start bringing back the carbs after the shows ( like 2-3 months more) or just cuting it straight forward as I do not need it anymore.
What is your personal experience with T3?
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read , answer and help.
