This is based on my understanding, so if I am wrong, someone please correct me.

The lower your TSH levels, the more you are producing thyroid hormone. I think your TSH looks good where it is now. If TSH continues to go down (<< 1 uIU/ml), you might experience symptoms of hyperthyroidism.

I agree with Jiri about testing free T3 and T4 rather than total. You want free T3 in the mid-upper range and free T4 about mid-range. If you get reverse T3 tested, you want that to be on the lower end.

@mmb3664 I wonder what is going on with my thyroid. TSH 9, but free T4 in mid range and T3 upper mid range...

@mmb3664 @jiri  wonder if all the VA being transported is claiming cholesterol, transthyretin, RBP, etc... therefore shunting thyroid transport.  Rising TSH means the body is yelling for more thyroid.   TSH at 9 the body is screaming for thyroid, there must be a bottleneck somewhere.   How recent if the 9 TSH test?

@orion two months ago. But I had high TSH even before taking accutane and any high vit A diet.. I think in my case it started due to mercury(amalgams), copper toxicity and deficiency of minerals like selenium, zinc etc. Especially due to bad diet and latter porn addiction(loss of all zinc that was left) and this zinc deficiency is the main cause of copper toxicity.. So I was a mess even before taking accutane and high vit A diet..

hey bro @jiri

how did you get rid of porn addiction ? anything you can share . i too have a bad porn addiction

Quote from Jiří on October 12, 2020, 3:17 am

@r-2 heh simply not watching porn.. For me it was bad habit like nail biting.. Now when I know how damaging pron addiction and masturbating and ejaculating all the time is. It was good motivation to just stop.. I don't have a girl so I am not saying that I am months and months on NO FAP. I think that it's bad as well when you can't do anything else just think about sexual things. You should listen to your body. Generally the less healthy person is the lower libido is and there is nothing more damaging than forcing masturbation just from boredom or some stress relief reason.. For me it feels healthy like once every 10 days maybe even 20 days. That tells me how bad my health is lol.

I think one of the things that theoretically help any addiction is to purposefully plan to do other things that generate feel-good hormones.  Such as a delicious meal, a hot bath, a walk in nature, a hug etc etc etc. 

In my opinion, all addictions are a symptom of low-feel good hormones.   I'm sure we VA-toxic people do have feel-good hormones that are out-of-whack.  So I think lowering the VA will help too, over time. 

We might have to fake it till we make it.  Show up to life, go on that hike,  plan a vacation --even if you just feel like being a hermit.
