Hypothroidism and IF

Hi, I would like to gather a consensus or guidance regarding when to take my thyroxine while I do 18:6 IF. Should I-

a) Have my tablet first thing in the morning like I’ve always done (8 am) and then have my first meal at 2pm

OR

b) Have my tablet one hour before my eating window starts, i.e at 1pm?

Answer

It doesnt really matter. Its best to take it on an empty stomach and not eat for at least 30 minutes after, but it doesn’t really matter when you eat after that.

The insert will usually say to take it in the morning, because it assumes that most people eat breakfast and continue to eat throughout the day, so first thing in the morning is really the only time the stomach is empty for most people.
