Would methorexate 2.5 make my hormones low i have rhurmtiod arthritis. my rhurmtiod is 35 it was 25. it seems to be rising?

Typically not: Mtx rarely affects hormone levels. Do not worry about the number as the value of the rheumatoid factor does not signify a worsening of the rheumatoid arthritis.
