My doctor wants me to tey a supplement called Thyroplex ... it contains - Hypothalamus, Adrenal gland, Pituitary Anterior, Ovary and whole thyroid - It doesn't sound very nice but I think she wants me to try this first to see if it helps - what do you all think? As always, I am anxious about any side effects, especially that most natural products are not standardised like conventional therapies -

As usual, girls, I value your opinions.

Happy thankgiving to all!

Hi Gez - I would be leary on anything that could alter the thyroid either direction without a prescription. I also looked at the ingredients of this product and it's all freeze dried bovine testicals and ovaries. I'm not sure how putting cow testies and ovaries in the body can help the thyroid. Sounds a little like snake oil.
