I'm wondering what the general plan is for people supplementing thyroid directly.
Is it like testosterone for bodybuilders, I.e. your natural endogenous production decreases as you take it externally and raise levels? Doesn't this mean you'd rebound to low thyroid when coming off?
Or do people plan on taking it for life? What's the plan here?
Curious because I've always thought of adding in precursors to hormones (through diet, supps) rather than the hormones themselves.
