Hi Doll - I take levothyroxine 75 mcg (which I've been taking for years). Once your friend starts taking the medication and her thyroid settles to normal, will (or do you think) she will start responding to NBE?

I've had no results yet with hypnotherapy, massage & FSO (started 3 months ago). I am considering taking Wonderup, or maybe red clover (I've heard PM is a no no with thyroid issues).

Please let us know what she decides to take and what results she gets.

As I said above, I've read PM is a no no, do you know of any other herbs which you can't take with this medication?

PM is definitely a no-no, you're right, but everything else should be ok to a degree. UNFORTUNATELY, oftentimes hypothyroidism causes estrogen dominance, which is why women don't see success with estrogenic herbs. That is why we are switching her to a PC-ONLY regimen, although she may continue on her GroBust as well, since it's much weaker than the actual herbs themselves. This is why I say everything else should be ok to a degree; it will ONLY work if it is what your body needs. Exceeding what your body needs will only cause imbalances that won't promote growth.

I really do think she will see results as soon as she gets this medication. I think the main problem from her hypothyroidism is that it prevents her body from creating new cells, which is what causes her thin skin, thin hair and makes it nearly impossible to create muscle. Even so, without the medicine she's still seen slight results from PC, so that gives us good hope that PC will be the answer.
