The spine is composed of 24 different bones called vertebrae, 7 in your neck, 12 in your upper to mid back, and 5 in your low back.  The upper to mid back vertebrae are called thoracic vertebrae, and they are referred to as T1-T12 from top to bottom.  T3 & T4 are then the 3rd and 4th thoracic vertebrae from the top.  They are located right between your shoulder blades (called scapulae)!

Does levothyroxine treat T3 and T4?

Levothyroxine primarily treats low levels of thyroxine (T4) in the body by providing a synthetic form of this hormone. While it does not directly replace triiodothyronine (T3), the body can convert T4 into T3 as needed. Therefore, levothyroxine effectively increases both T4 and T3 levels indirectly, helping to manage hypothyroidism symptoms.

How is t3 and t4 synthesized in the thyroid gland?

T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine) are synthesized in the thyroid gland through a process that begins with the uptake of iodine from the bloodstream. Iodine is incorporated into the amino acid tyrosine within the protein thyroglobulin, forming monoiodotyrosine (MIT) and diiodotyrosine (DIT). These iodinated tyrosines are then coupled to produce T3 and T4. Finally, T4 is released into the bloodstream, while a smaller amount of T3 is also secreted, with T4 being converted to T3 in peripheral tissues as needed.
