Is aromatherapy ok when on synthroid medicine?

Aromatherapy is generally safe for most people, including those taking Synthroid (levothyroxine), a common medication for thyroid conditions. Since aromatherapy works through inhalation or topical use of essential oils, it typically doesn't interfere with how Synthroid is absorbed or metabolized. However, it’s important to use essential oils mindfully, as some, like clary sage or rosemary, may stimulate the endocrine system. If you have thyroid concerns, always consult your healthcare provider before adding new wellness practices, especially if you’re using concentrated oils. Choosing calming oils such as lavender, chamomile, or sandalwood is often a safe and soothing option. Aromatherapy can be a supportive part of your wellness routine, helping reduce stress, improve sleep, and promote relaxation—all of which are beneficial for thyroid health.

Does your metabolism work normal if you have no thyroid but take synthroid?

Yes, although "normal" is a difficult word to characterize. Synthroid is emulating the normal function of the thyroid so once you are on the optimal dosage of Synthroid it should do exactly what your thyroid was doing before it was removed. Remember that theendocrinology is just one part of metabolism, there is also a significant number of chemical reactions associated with the nervous system.

Does synthroid contain iodine?

Yes, if Synthroid contains Levothyroxine (3,5,3',5'-Tetraiodo-L-thyronine) then there is 4 Iodine atoms per molecule (..Tetraiodo..) in it![You should ask your chemist for confirmation]Wrong answer: No.Levothyroxine (ingredient in Synthroid, Levoxyl, etc...) is T4 which your body would make on its own from iodine and tyrosine if your thyroid were functioning properly. You would most likely not need to supplement with iodine since your body is not making its own thyroid hormone, but relys on T4 from Synthroid.
