Why Some People Lose Weight After STOPPING Levothyroxine
Taking thyroid medication is supposed to help you lose weight, right? Not exactly... In fact, most people who start it never lose weight and some people who stop it do.
The question is, why do these people lose weight when they stop it?
We don't know for sure, but here are two reasons:
1. They were taking it when they didn't need it (thus interfering with normal thyroid hormone production).
2. Their dose was too high (thus causing high levels of reverse T3).
Bottom line? If you are having problems with weight gain and you have a thyroid problem, take a long hard look at the type and dose of thyroid medication that you are taking.
