39 Going On Elderly

Age: 39
Height: 6’4"
Waist: 36
Weight: 240lbs

Body and Facial Hair: Never have grown much hair on my face, not enough to grow a decent beard or goatee, shave every couple days. Small patch center of chest and around nipples, sporadic single hairs around shoulders.

Where I Carry Weight: As I gain weight I notice it mostly around my waist and my chest, rest of me stays mostly the same.

Health Conditions: Depression on and off pretty much since adolescence, social anxiety, digestive issues, acne, libido and pleasure of orgasm has declined greatly, lack of enjoyment and drive. Had a suspected case of viral meningitis roughly 10 years ago, couple head traumas as a kid falling out of a car and getting a concussion in 4th grade with about 24hrs memory loss. Those things make me wonder at long-term effects after listening to Dr. Mark Gordon.

Rx/OTC Drugs: Accutane for 6 months, other than that only supplements off and on including multi-vitamin, vitaD3, and iodine. I monitored temps as suggested and averaged 96.57 pre-iodine, took .70 mL daily for 3 weeks and re-tested temps and averaged 96.28

Thanks to KSMan and all for the time you spend helping others!

Looks like IR doesn’t work for you. Were you taking adequate amounts of selenium and supporting vitamins/minerals when you did IR?

Can’t really say much about the thyroid (based on your TSH), however, because fT3 and fT4 were not provided.

Morning temperatures indicate hypothyroid. You should ask your doctor about medication and see if they help your libido and/or longevity in life.

How many mg’s of iodine were you taking ? Tsh is up some, you need to test ft3 and ft4 as well as rt3 and antibodies. Read the stickies they will tell you a lot.

I have to go in to my GP for a physical before I consult with Defy so I’m re-reading through stickies and looking for feedback before I go in, that way I can make sure to ask for whatever else I need.

I was taking a mineral supplement with the iodine that had selenium in it. Quit that after a month. If I recall correctly, I was taking 13 mg’s of iodine daily.

I’ll definitely ask about the other thyroid tests. Thanks for the feedback so far!
