Hormone Optimization is offered to patients as part of Meliora Integrative Medicine’s Five-Point Restorative Approach and Hormone Optimization Therapy.
The two most common conditions affecting your thyroid are Hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.
Hypothyroidism, also called underactive thyroid or low thyroid, is a disorder in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone.
Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis is an autoimmune condition where your immune system produces proteins that can block the normal functioning of your thyroid.
Thyroid imbalance may also lead to cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis and female infertility.
Many patients have been told that their thyroid level was checked and that it was “normal”, yet they are fatigued, can’t lose weight, hair is falling out, etc. In these patients, it’s important to check a full thyroid panel (TSH, T4, T3, thyroid antibodies, etc).
Let’s check your levels, your body may be suffering from low thyroid.
If you have difficulty losing weight despite optimal diet and exercise, you may have a thyroid condition.
