Its also been said to be good for adrenal fatigue in that it is an adaptation. Thoughts?

Here is an interesting write up from the Sloan Kettering institute:

Great news for you !!

I can’t take Ashwagandha as it counter-acts with other essential medications I take.

I began taking Ashwagandha in October of ’08 at the recommendation of a local ND.
At that time I had low Free T3 with optimal Free T4 and a TSH of .8. The ND told me
that Ashwagangha could help the T4 to T3 conversion, as well as helping to give my
adrenals a boost, as I tend to have low cortisol due to long term CFS. Upon retesting
the thyroid after 6 months, my Free T3 had come up to a normal range. Good for me!
I had read some awful stories about thyroid meds, on thyroid patient forums and was
very glad to not have to go that route. 🙂
