I take levothyroxine every morning and wait an hour before coffee. ☕ Does the timing actually matter that much?

Tips from my experience

Timing option Considerations

Morning, empty stomach ☀️ Standard recommendation

Night, 3–4h after dinner 🌙 Works for some, check with doctor

With food 🍳 May reduce absorption

Questions
Keep a consistent schedule
Separate from calcium/iron supplements
Repeat TSH on same timing

When do you take your thyroid meds and why? ⏰
