Hi Paul
Thank you for this. How often should we be testing cortisol?
Kind regards
Alice
It depends if you think it is a problem, Alice.
Not at all if you don’t.
If your thyroid treatment isn’t working then test it.
However, make sure your thyroid treatment is improving your FT3 (without high rT3) and signs and symptoms are improving.
Best wishes, Paul
