T3 with MK677

[fuegofam]

Will taking T3 with MK677 negatively affect gains? I read that T3 lowers GH and IGF-1 wondering if it has the same effect with MK677. I am taking 10mcg T3 daily.

why on earth would you take 10mcg of T3? you naturally produce 25mcg of T3 daily. you are just supplementing you endogenous T4 with exogenous T3 and shutting yourself down. Get off T3 immediately. run 40mcg or higher.

you are just supplementing you endogenous T4 with exogenous T3

That doesn't make sense. He is supplementing the thyroid production, which consists in both T4 (principally) and T3.
With that amount I do not think he is suppresing TSH, but I agree it is not a smart choice.
Anyways it is easy to check, try it and do bloodwork before, and after some weeks, and you will have the answer.

Where did you read T3 reduces IGF-1? I highly doubt at physilogical exogenous dosages or even slightly supraphysiological does that.

Ok, I am not gonna take T3 anymore. I have only been on it for a week I wasn't aware that it was suppressive. Anything I should do when coming off? This was prescribed by a doctor.

It can be really supressive at high levels, from 50 mcg and above, but rest assured you have not suppressed your thyroid at all, there is literally no chance. So for your peace of mind, do not worry, and if you are not convinced at all just ask the doctor for a TSH(this is the basic value in order to know if you are suppressed or not), Free T4 and T3/Free T3 bloodwork and you will see all is ok.

Just in case, do not eat like a pig for 1-2 weeks.
But seriously, there is no way you have been suppressed with that amount.
