I don't think you can safely run 12.5 any longer than you can run 100.

In BigAndy69's t3 thread he gives a sample mild t3 cycle using 12.5mcg for 4 weeks and then ramping down to 6.25mcg for one week. If you read through the thread it is discussed that 12.5mcg only mildy suppresses the thyroid, but is still enough to speed up your metabolism past normal levels and make more efficient use of food.
I think the 4 weeks and then ramp down is probably the safest idea even though it is a very light dosage. You really have to find out how you respond to the t3. Some people get shut down real bad even after cycling properly at moderate dosages. I've seen posts by other people stopping cold after taking over 75mcg with no ramp down and regain natural thyroid function quickly without any problems.
Do a similar short and mild cycle to gauge your reaction first before you even think of running it for a long time.

You should also be aware that t3 receptors are located all over the body. It affects more than just metabolism. Hyperthyroidism over long durations can cause insulin resistance, eye disease, calcium loss from bone, poor mental functioning, tachycardia (increased heart rate progressing to atrial fibrillation), and muscle weakness to name a few.
I think the use of T3 should be limited to increasing your metabolism at the tail end of an extreme diet.
For me, after about 3 weeks of dieting, my metabolism slows down quite a bit so I add 12.5mcg of T3 to keep losing fat at a steady rate, I use it for 5-6 weeks tops.
I will never do a 25mcg+ T3 cycle again.

i'm doing 4 months of the following: 50mcg ED of T3, 80mg spiropent ED (2 on 2 off), 500mg Enanthate EW, 35mg winny 40 days/ 500mg EQ EW 8 weeks/ 35mg winny 40 days (tolling approx 4 months), GH 2 iu a day all 4 months (actually a 6 month run on it, 1 months pre and 1 month post cycle on 2iu GH). as well as 10iu humulin R post w/o only (4 days a week) 
i figure i got enough anabolics in there to cover my ass more than enough. and i'm using the 4th month to ramp down slooooooowly over a months time...like a week of 37.5mcg/week 25mcg/week 12.5mcg/week 6mcg. so its actually 3 months on 50mcg ED T3 all told. i figure i will shut things down temporarily.....but i doubt 50mcg for that long then ramped down will cause any real harm. i guess i'll let you know in a few months. 
i am a professional steroid user, please don't try this at home. lol.

FREAKAZILLA....
you plan on running T3 for 4 months straight...
for somebody who answers every post like he knows it all, you sure sound like an ill-informed novice with your t3 doses.
please, re-educate yourself as you may harm yourself and maybe even harm others with your mis-information and nonsense.

dude, like i said before......stay off my back. 50mcg ED is not anything major, 4th month is ramping down too. i never said anyone else should do it, read the last sentence matter of fact. so you don't want to do it, don't do it. i'm doing it, thanks for the concern though mom.
and as for "answers like he knows everything" are you jealous of my knowledge over you? otherwise i see no need to bring that up.Mr.Holland

...and Freakzilla i do disagree with you again...
I think 4 month of 50mcg ed is very harsh on your body..
I wont do it. And i think Spectre shouldnt do it either..
try those 12.5mcg for a couple of weeks, and see how you react to it. The you can higher your dose if you want to.
I also think that you shouldnt use t3 for longer than 5, 6 weeks tops

dude...
unlike you, i dont send bad karma titled "fuck you" because i dont agree with somebody's post.
second, i'm not jealous of you in any way. believe that!
third, even though you're an asshole i'm still concerned for the board's safety as your post may influence somebody to perhaps give a '4 month T3 run' a try.
also, even though you're a total jerk, i dont want too see another 'my thyroid is so fucked' thread.
take care of yourself.
Here we go again...................
I'm so tired of all the nay-sayers. Prolonged use of T3 even at very high dosages of say 100-300mcgs per day, will not shut down your thyroid permenantly. There have been people on t3 for years and years and when they were taken off the drug their thyroid fuction returned to normal. http://www.rippedmass.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=806&highlight=cytomel
Here is another article: http://www.anabolicextreme.com/anabolic/archives/anex_archives_issue9_getlean.htm
Bro the best way to find out most anything that you want to know is to use that little button at the top of the page, called the search button. Too many bro's on here spreading misinformation to take any chances. Do you homework, and then make your own educated decisions. Hope this helps you.
Oh yea and please none of that, t3 can shut you down for life!!!! I believe that its Warlobo who has had a standing bet going for quite some time now, if anyone can prove that using t3 can shut down your thyroid function for life, he will pay them $100, no one has taken his money yet. Be easy bro.

mmm.... interesting post..
I searched the net also to educate myself a little...
always red that it WILL shut you down.
But now i red this, i'm a bit confused...
For myself i think i wont take the chance of thyriod shutdown, so stay with the low dosage short period t3 cycles.
But maybe you're right and it wont..
I think, like you, people should educate themselfs and then decide for themselfs..
But since this is a discusion board... we have to discuse / argue about it. and thats what we're doing now..

Re: Here we go again...................
thank you. i had been referred to this by a few members of another board. and researched before i bumped the dose or decided on prolonged use. mr. holland and mr. boogie follow me around and wait for me to say something contraversial in the least, then start shit. don't mind them. children! lol. i NEVER said the dude should do T3 4 months straight at any dose (although i would tell him 12.5 is fine for that length). so don't put words in my mouth, or like i told lift chief when he did, i am going to get pissed. i stated my cycle and T3 use in it since he was asking about prolonged usage etc as it relates to T3. suprised lift chief isn't on here? where is the other part of the trio? lol. it isn't the same with only two guys on my nuts.

So many focus on whether or not the thyroid will recover after suppression. 99% of the time it will. Instead, the focus should be on the consequences of having excess T3 in your system for 4 straight months. Obviously this is dose related, but everyone should remember that T3 does more than just effect metabolism. There are 5 different thyroid hormone receptors located all over the body (brain, heart, muscle, liver, kidneys, pituitary, hypothalamus, bone, adipose tissue) resulting in multiple actions. Do a pubmed search on the consequences of hyperthyroidism, because by staying on for that long, you are essentially simulating such a pathological condition.

anyone know of a 20mcg/tab dosage of T3 out of europe. i always see everyone talk about the 25mcg/tab. just wondering if its real.
i had my thyroid chekked 4 weeks after being on T3 for 10 weeks(doseage ranged from 25-50mcg). my test came bak normal, no probs what so ever...would i do it again for that long, sure, i have found T3 to be of great use when cycling because it allows me more freedom in my diet, although now i only use 12.5-25mcg because i have found it to be right for what i want.

I echo this.

I've done long term T3 cycles at 12.5mcg and I've never had any issues when coming off of it. If there was any suppression then it wasn't noticeable. Personally I don't think taking T3 at 12.5mcg for a few months at a time poses any problems for the average person. Perhaps if you have some sort of underlying thyroid problem then it may cause problems, so just do a blood test to find out first. If everything checks out ok you should be fine.
And if you want to know for sure how dangerous it is then run that dose for a few weeks and have your blood tested after the cycle. If it's near normal levels then go for a longer cycle. I doubt that small of a dose would cause any more significant suppression long term than it does in the first few weeks.
Research this for yourself and get blood work done. Once you know how your body reacts then it doesn't matter what all these heresay spouters are telling you. I really wish people who have no real world experience on a topic would quit giving out advice on something they heard from someone else. Those people gain zero credibility in my book. Feel free to give a friendly warning and point them to your reference thread or study, but don't just come into a message and say "Don't do it, it's dangerous!" especially if you've never tried it.
