For about one in seven of the 10-12 million Americans with an underactive thyroid gland, conventional treatment with the synthetic thyroid hormone levothyroxine just isn’t enough. Sometimes, the cause is simple and easy to fix —you may need a dose adjustment, a change in when you take your thyroid medication or in where you store it, for example.
For others, the reasons are more mysterious and controversial. For instance, some experts say some people with hypothyroidism may benefit from adding a second thyroid hormone called T3.
