How long do I need to stay on Thyroid Hormone Replacement Therapy (THRT)?

Back to FAQs

THRT is typically a long-term therapy. Many patients stay on treatment indefinitely because they feel better, have more energy, and experience other benefits.

If you choose to stop therapy, Defy Medical can guide the process to minimize symptoms as much as possible. It’s important to note that if your thyroid does not produce thyroid hormones, then your Thyroid disease symptoms will likely return.
