I have an underactive thyroid. I'm 2.5. Months out and have lost 35 lbs. I have also had my dosage reduced twice already. The doc said thyroid meds are somewhat weight depends t so it's not uncommon for doses to go down with weight loss. We do lose a but slower as we get pcos, thyroid, Menopause, get older, etc., from what I have read. But it's still all a lot faster than without the sleeve!

I'm hypothyroid as well, sleeved 2 months ago. I've had my medication reduced once and lost a total of 37 lbs since my surgery. I'm in my 60's, and it is a slow-go, but it is real.

I have pcos and take a thyroid pill. I was worried about this too. But better slow than nothing at all. I gwt sleeved 10/25

I have under active thyroid and pcos too. I go in tomorrow morning.

I had my thyroid out a couple years ago. I had VSG on 5/15 and today 10/17 down fifty lbs

My thyroid dosage went from 150 to 125 to 112 mcg.

And yes Dr said it will be a little bit slower

But I am 53 years old as well

I think we are going to have to take thyroid pills for the rest of our days. I do know that the lower the dose you have the better

I take 215 mg of levoxyl with no thyroid. I'm only 21. I was concerned about the slow loss. But feel better now.. Thanks guys
