T-4 VS T-3 - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

allen2122 · 20-03-2004, 02:14 PM

ive never used t-3 and with it being virtually impossible to get now that the main supply factory has closed down i was wondering how T-4 was rated against T-3.
and at what dosage would be best for fat burning and what dose would you recomend whilst using HGH.
many thanks....ALLEN

t4 is levothyroxine which passes through the liver and then is turned into thyroxine (t3). 100mcg of T4 roughly equates to 25mcg of T3. T3 is about 4:1 ratio stronger than T4

You have got to be VERY careful using thyroid drugs. You need to make sure you taper them very slowly, or you will fcuk your thyroid up for good!

T3 is about 4-5 times stronger than T3 mate. T4 only becomes active when it is converted into T3.

You'll have to look around to get more info about T4 but I think you'll find that it's not the best fat-burner about.

Remember to taper up and down just as you would with T3.

Good luck, Jock

Hmm, not sure about that to be honest mate, ive not had experience with T4, you might be right, but worth checking out for sure...

I have a load of T4's that I have never used, I must do a bit more research on how to use them as I am planning a cut cycle soon

Well I think you should be EXTREMLEY careful when using thyroid meds.

I would taper......

i have finished my t3 today. i did a 6 week course but as the others said it is imperative to taper up and down slowly. check articles posts and then ask any questions because you cant be to careful.

No need to taper it if using smaller doses (100 or less mcg ed) higher doses would be best tapered down.

It's less effective than T3 but it's also a hell of a lot safer!
