You can take both medications at 1 hour interval

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Welcome to HCM. I have gone through your question and understand your concern

There is no significant drug interaction between Levothyroxine and Regesterone. So you can safely take both medications. Levothyroxine has to be taken in morning empty stomach, while you can take Regesterone after 1 hour.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help
