Thousands of (mostly) women have gone to a doc because they don't feel like themselves only to leave frustrated and sick to death of hearing, "This is what happens at your age", or "It's all in your head, nothing's wrong." They—maybe you—have said things like: I'm gaining weight, I'm cold all the time, my hair is getting thin, my sleep is awful, I'm in a fog. To be fair to the docs who hear these kinds of complaints, the cause could be one of many problems. Depending on your age they may get chalked up to peri-menopause though feeling cold is not on that menu. Too much iron, low B12, certain medications, toxins, and viruses can also be to blame. But we're here to talk about the one problem that captures all of those symptoms to a T and adds many more: Hypothyroidism. If you've Googled your symptoms Hypothyroidism may have come up more than once. Women are five to eight times more likely than men to have thyroid problems. One woman in eight will develop a thyroid disorder during her lifetime. Naturally you'd want to find out if in fact your thyroid is healthy or in need of support. If you've had the above mentioned kind of doc visit and still feel like crapola, you are not alone. Help is here. If you haven't yet gone to a doc because you don't know what to expect or what to ask for, this Shortie is for you. And if you don't want to listen--it's only 14 minutes long--there's always a transcript and the resources below are great places to get all the information you need to understand the various forms of thyroid disease, how to get help, and what to ask your doctor for if you don't have someone who is fluent in thyroid restoration. https://chriskresser.com/ (Dr. Chris Kresser) for information on all things functional medicine but specific to this post, he has a great ebook on why people get thyroid disease, what stresses out the thyroid, testing, meds, herbs, etc. https://www.mary-shomon.com/ (Mary Shomon) is a lay person but decades long thyroid health advocate and coach for those struggling with hypothyroidism. She has books, runs classes, and offers coaching including reading thyroid labs. I interviewed her for this podcast. https://rebelliouswellnessover50.com/episode-9-your-thyroid-may-need-attention/ (Find it here.) https://thyroidpharmacist.com/ (Izabella Wentz) specializes in Hashimotos thyroiditis which is the autoimmune form of hypothyroidism. She recommends lifestyle, natural foods and supplements for healing and dealing with Hashi's. https://www.canaryclub.org/coaches/thyroidpower-thyroid-power-richard-shames-md (Dr. Richard Shames,) as mentioned above, is a thyroid expert who offers virtual consultations after testing. He was the first doc I consulted after interviewing him for a summit and I'm forever grateful for his insights and recommendations. You might want to start with his book, https://thyroidpower.com/feeling-fat-fuzzy-or-frazzled/ (Thyroid Mind Power, The Proven Cure of Hormone-Related Depression and Memory Loss.)

For twenty-five years, https://www.mary-shomon.com (Mary Shomon) about that I have been out in the thyroid trenches fighting for decent care and awareness and doing what she can to help support her fellow thyroid patients. She has written 15 books and the majority of them are on thyroid and autoimmune health and hormonal health, many of them are New York Times best sellers. She took on the powers that were, back in the 90s but that haven't changed much, to bust the myth that the symptoms of hypothyroidism—fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, dysregulated body temps, and more—were all in people's heads. The message boards she was researching in were full of women saying otherwise. If you are experiencing the symptoms mentioned above, or these from https://www.mary-shomon.com (Mary's site,) and have been told “it's probably that you're stressed, depressed, PMS, menopausal, lazy, got to get off the couch, eat less, work out more and take an antidepressant”: know you are not alone. You need a doc or patient advocate like Mary to focus on the health of your thyroid. The most common test a doc will give a person who comes in with symptoms is the TSH test, which stands for thyroid stimulating hormone. TSH is a pituitary hormone and it's what we refer to as a messenger hormone, it is not a thyroid hormone at all but it is one piece—and one piece only—of the thyroid profile one needs. It is a secondary marker of what's going on with the gland itself. Using only TSH as the measure of thyroid health leaves a lot of people who may have levels that fall into the so-called--and quite controversial--reference range, or the normal range. They may be looking normal on paper, but they certainly don't feel normal. This is a huge piece of information people, and one I did not know, Mary pointed out, “If you look at the prescribing instructions for anti-depressants and cholesterol lowering statin drugs, both of them say very clearly a complete thyroid panel should be performed before this medication is prescribed.” Some women who experience mild depression and are given antianxiety or antidepressant drugs, who never had this problem before, they get their thyroid diagnosed and treated, depression lifts. They're fine. It wasn't a mental health problem. If you find it difficult to lose weight even though you are eating well and exercising, if you've seen a doctor about this, you might be greeted with, “You just need to eat less and work out more.” Weight gain or inability to lose weight are common with hypothyroidism. She also warned, “Ladies, if you're penciling in those eyebrows, it's probably a thyroid get you need to get it checked.” I asked Mary what age is too old to look at the thyroid for symptom relief. “There's never a wrong time to feel better and to get to the root of this.”  She talked about clients in their 80s who started to lose their usual energy, got the right thyroid tests, the right thyroid supplementation—meds or otherwise—came back to her and say things like, “I feel so much younger. I'm energetic, my joints don't hurt anymore. I'm out there gardening. I'm doing my dance class. I'm doing the things I love, playing with my grandkids.” And so, there's never a wrong age. Shifts in estrogen and progesterone that women experience during the transitional period of perimenopause and after menopause and periods stop can be a trigger for the onset of various thyroid issues. We discussed dessicated thyroid meds where all of the thyroid hormones are built in because they are formulated from the thyroid glands of pigs. And have been for one hundred years or more. If you've been given Synthroid or another T4 only medication, and don't feel well yet or feel worse—which is what happened in my case years ago—you can ask your doc to add some T3. (Mary explains it in our chat) or switch to a natural, dessicated version. Dessicated thyroid meds are not FDA approved, but are FDA regulated legal to prescribe.

In this podcast episode I interview Dana Trentini, the founder of the well-known Hypothyroid Mom blog.  I really enjoyed our talk, in particular discussing thyroid issues with someone who is so passionate about thyroid health. Dana Trentini created the thyroid advocacy blog Hypothyroid Mom. Dana launched her blog on October 1st, 2012, in memory of the unborn baby she lost due to hypothyroidism. She set out on a mission to learn all she could about hypothyroidism and to share her discoveries with people around the globe. Dana has since been featured in The Wall Street Journal and The Atlantic. In our new podcast interview, we covered the following topics in order: What motivated you to become a thyroid patient advocate and create your blog? What are the signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism? What is the prevalence of thyroid disease? Why do you think there are so many undiagnosed thyroid sufferers in the world? Which lab tests do you recommend for hypothyroidism? The number one prescribed medication for hypothyroidism is Synthroid. Why are so many hypothyroid patients still struggling despite taking levothyroxine medications like Synthroid? You write at Hypothyroid Mom that treating thyroid disease is really like putting together a big puzzle. What are the main pieces of the puzzle that should be considered? What resources are available to help patients find open-minded thyroid doctors? You wrote a book with Mary Shomon, Your Healthy Pregnancy with Thyroid Disease: A Guide to Fertility, Pregnancy, and Postpartum Wellness. Tell us about it. Dana has a true passion for Hashimoto's and Hypothyroidism advocacy so I urge everyone to connect with her online to learn more.  Her blog is filled with many excellent articles and resources to help you wade through all the thyroid information that is available on the internet.
