I was borderline hypothyroid. I took the synthroid for a year and my thyroid level really dropped so they took me off. Then put me back on. Right now I'm off. I was on a very low dose. It did help my hair and dry skin but did nothing for my libido.
Honestly, the only thing that helped was natural testosterone, but it made me gain about 15 lbs so I stopped. I was able to lose the weight after a few months, but I have another 10 lbs I'd like to lose so that was a frustrating setback too. I don't know if a lower dose of the testosterone might be worth a try. I seem to be very sensitive to steroids.
This is all so hard. Sometimes, I think maybe there is just too much water under the bridge. If we D though, I'm done. I can't imagine ever dating again. So, I try to remember all of the good things about my H, look at my DD, and plod ahead.
