View allI've been practicing intermittent fasting for quite a while now, and it's really helped me shed a lot of fat. Plus, I do a 36-hour fast once every month. But recently, I found out I have Hypothyroidism and I'm now on thyroxine tablets on an empty stomach every morning, and I take a Vitamin D3 tablet once a week. I did mention my fasting routine to my doctor, but I completely forgot to ask if it's okay to keep doing it with my thyroid meds. And since he didn't say I should stop, I'm kind of unsure. So, is it safe to continue intermittent fasting while taking thyroid medication, or should I be concerned?
Yes you can continue fasting while on thyroid medicines In fact if you loose weight your metabolic status might get better Continue the thyroid replacement also

I'm a bit worried about my recent thyroid function test results. They did the tests on 04062016 and my T3 level came back as 1.09 ngml, which I know falls somewhere within the normal 0.72-2.02 ngml range. But here's where I get confused my T4 was 8.38 ugdl and TSH was 5.61 uIUml. I understand that T4 seems to be okay within the normal 4.3-12.5 ugdl range, but my TSH level is above the normal 0.4-4.2 uIUml range. Do you think I should start medication based on these results? I'm anxious about what this might mean for my health.
