Hi everyone,
I'm new to the group. I've been hypothyroid, on levothyroxine, for six years. I'd been on 150mcg, and my TSH was 0.12, and my doctor wanted to lower it to 137mcg. After this, I realized I had been feeling slightly anxious, and that went away. I started taking ashwagandha, an herb that is supposed to help with anxiety and insomnia, and support the thyroid. I had thyroid labs drawn, and my T4 was high. Has anyone used ashwaganda for thyroid? I wonder if it is stimulating my thyroid.
