Hi, I started synthroid 25mg about 2 weeks ago and the first week I had alot of energy, but this week I feel very tired and the first week as well I lost 6 pounds this week only 1 pound and I feel very exahusted, do you think the doc needs to up my dosage? Or is something wrong? I also am having symptoms I am going to get my period wich is weird cause Im soooo irregular, and thats normal for me. Should I call my doctor or are these normal reactions to the medication?

I'd call the doctor and ask. Your doctor should be having you get a blood test anyway to be sure that the synthroid is bringing your thyroid to the right level.

Do you have hypothyroidism? My daughter has it. She has to have blood draws often. Call your dr. and see if they feel you should be bumped up in dose. My daughter did not have a peroid until she was regulated with synthroid for hypothyroidism. She was always,cold, tired, has weight issues, depressed and constipated. Good luck to you.
