Episode 25:22 It's Not Your Thyroid… It's This! When is a Thyroid problem, NOT a Thyroid problem? That's a great question. One I answer on this episode. Specifically, I talk about a patient of mine who saw her Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) levels spiral out of control. However, the problem WASN'T with her Thyroid. Nor was it with her Pituitary gland… the part of the brain that makes TSH. It was somewhere else. Somewhere, and something, that had nothing to do with her Thyroid. In fact, it was something we discovered after looking at some of her OTHER blood tests. Something that anyone who takes Thyroid medication should be aware of.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Heather Stone, a leading functional medicine practitioner with over 20 years of experience, to unpack why so many thyroid issues go undiagnosed or mismanaged. We go beyond the standard TSH lab test to explore the real drivers of thyroid dysfunction — from gut imbalances and hormone shifts to environmental triggers often overlooked in conventional care. You'll hear why medication alone rarely resolves symptoms long term, and why a precision-based, root-cause approach is essential for lasting healing. We dive deep into Hashimoto's, autoimmune flare-ups, and the exact moments in life when women are most vulnerable to thyroid breakdown — like postpartum and menopause. If you've ever been told “your labs look normal” but you still feel off, this episode is for you. It's time to move from symptom management to root cause resolution. Key Takeaways: Identify Underlying Causes: Healing thyroid dysfunction requires looking beyond hormone prescriptions to address immune, gut, adrenal, and environmental triggers. Comprehensive Testing: Traditional TSH testing is inadequate alone; a full thyroid panel and additional health markers are crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Lifestyle Integration: Dietary changes, particularly eliminating gluten and dairy, and stabilizing blood sugar are pivotal for improving thyroid function and overall health. Functional vs. Traditional Medicine: Functional medicine offers a holistic approach that focuses on the root causes of symptoms rather than managing them with medications. Women's Health Concerns: Women are more susceptible to thyroid issues due to hormonal fluctuations and stress, necessitating tailored approaches to diagnosis and care. More About Dr. Heather Stone, DC: Dr. Heather Stone, DC is one of the top functional medicine practitioners in the world. She has over 20 years of clinical experience in private practice. During that time she has successfully helped thousands of women overcome the symptoms of hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Her thyroid transformation blueprint has been used by hundreds of doctors, and thus has helped countless women return to happy, healthy, & lean.

Your thyroid is not just “another hormone”—it's the maestro that sets the tempo for your whole body, and it especially needs love as progesterone drops in perimenopause. But here's the problem: so many practitioners still miss the real story. If all you've had checked is your TSH and you were told “it's normal,” you could still be sidelined by sluggish thyroid symptoms—because so much more is happening under the surface. A full thyroid panel really matters. That means pushing for TSH, free T4, free T3, reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies. But it doesn't stop with testing. You need someone looking at your labs with a functional lens (the ‘optimal' prevention-focused ranges, not just “fine for the average population”) and someone who understands the nuances—like how stress, inflammation, and gut health all play a role in your thyroid feeling sluggish. Here is what we cover in this episode: Top Symptoms of Hypothyroidism: Think constipation, hair loss (even in your brows!), feeling chilly all the time, low libido, dry skin, stubborn bloating, and more. If you nod along to two or more, this episode is for you! Why “Normal” Thyroid Labs Can Still Mean Trouble: Many women have labs that come back “normal,” yet their symptoms scream otherwise. I explain why that happens and what labs you actually need. What a Full Thyroid Panel Really Looks Like: Most practitioners aren't running the full panel! I spell it out for you (hint: it's more than just TSH and T4). Reverse T3—The Missing Piece: This marker is rarely tested, but it tells you if your thyroid hormone is actually getting into your cells where it belongs, or if it's being blocked! The Role of Gut Health and Minerals: If you want lasting thyroid health (and overall well-being), you have to zero in on gut health and the minerals your thyroid loves—spoiler: copper is way more important than you think!

Gaining weight. But your labs are “normal”? Host: Robyn Engelson Guest: Dr. Doriana Parkin Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode, Robyn engages in a conversation with Dr. Doriana Parkin, a family doctor trained in traditional western medicine. Together, we delve into the complex connection between thyroid health, gut function, and the deep impact of emotional trauma. Dr. Parkin uncovers how even when lab results appear "normal," many patients continue to suffer from symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, and chronic pain. The conversation explores how emotional well-being, early life stress, and unresolved trauma can play a pivotal role in disrupting physical health, particularly the thyroid and gut systems. Dr. Parkin shares her approach to compassionate, trauma-informed care and explains why validating a patient's personal story is just as crucial as analyzing lab reports. This episode offers profound insights into how to listen to your body and advocate for your own health. You'll learn: How emotional trauma, especially childhood stress, can impact thyroid health and gut function, leading to chronic health issues. The significance of mind-body connection in understanding symptoms that lab tests often fail to explain. Why patients with normal lab results can still experience debilitating symptoms, and how emotional history is key to finding the root cause. The crucial role of compassionate, trauma-informed care in healing chronic illnesses. How to trust your body's signals and seek the right kind of medical support when you feel dismissed. Memorable Quotes: ““Thyroid health isn't just about the numbers—it's about understanding the emotional story behind those numbers.” “Your symptoms may not show up in a test, but that doesn't mean they're not real or treatable.” “Compassionate care listens to both the body and the story it tells.” “The gut and thyroid are deeply connected; if one is off, it can disrupt the other.” “You're your own advocate—trust your instincts and find a provider who respects your health journey.” Resources & Mentions: Dr. Doriana Parkin's approach to thyroid and gut health. Research on the connection between gut health, thyroid function, and autoimmune diseases. Integrative medicine approaches to diagnosing beyond conventional lab work. Clinics and practices focused on compassionate and integrative care for thyroid health. Actionable Steps for Listeners: Trust Your Symptoms: If your body is telling you something isn't right—even when tests come back "fine"—trust that feeling. Your symptoms are valid and deserve attention. Prioritize Emotional Healing: Consider how past emotional trauma may be affecting your physical health. Seek care that addresses both the mind and body. Focus on Gut Health: Your gut plays a significant role in thyroid health. Consult with a professional who can help balance your gut and thyroid together. Seek Compassionate Care: Don't settle for healthcare that dismisses your concerns. Advocate for a provider who listens and integrates emotional and physical care. Final Thought: True healing begins when you're fully seen and heard. When patients feel understood and their health concerns are validated—not dismissed—they are empowered to begin the journey toward recovery. Compassionate care isn't just a luxury, it's essential for true healing. If you feel your symptoms are ignored, it's time to find a healthcare provider who understands your unique story and addresses both your emotional and physical health needs. What listeners have to say: “Dr. Parkin's approach was a breath of fresh air. She truly listened and validated my experiences, which made me feel understood for the first time. This episode opened my eyes to the crucial link between emotions and physical health. I now feel empowered to take control of my healing journey.” Loved this episode?

Join hosts Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas as they dive into the role of three key hormones in pregnancy: thyroid hormone, prolactin, and insulin. In this episode, we discuss the thyroid's function and why it's problematic if it works too fast or slow. We explore common thyroid tests, how thyroid issues can impact pregnancy, and their connection to prolactin levels. We also break down prolactin's role, what affects its levels. We discuss the difference between a micro- and macro-adenoma and treatment for both. Additionally, we touch on galactorrhea, a condition causing unexpected breast discharge, and the importance of discussing it with your doctor. We then shift to insulin and its link to diabetes. We explain type 1 diabetes (an autoimmune condition) and type 2 diabetes (where insulin doesn't work effectively), along with the importance of hemoglobin A1C testing. Maintaining proper blood sugar levels before pregnancy is crucial, as poorly controlled diabetes can lead to birth defects, pregnancy complications, and delivery risks. Tune in for expert insights on optimizing hormonal health for pregnancy.This episode was brought to you from ReceptivaDx and RMA of New York.

Welcome back to Pushing the Limits for another insightful episode. Today, we dive into Kaatsu Training with Sandy Nelson, exploring how this blood flow restriction technique boosts bone density, muscle growth, and brain health for older adults and athletes. Key Points: Research suggests Kaatsu Training helps older adults with osteopenia by improving bone density. It seems likely that Kaatsu Training increases IGF-1 and BDNF, supporting muscle and brain health. The evidence leans toward Kaatsu Training offering neuroprotection, likely via BDNF. Kaatsu Training appears to enhance athlete performance, aiding recovery and strength. What is Kaatsu Training? Kaatsu Training, also known as Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training, is a method where special bands partially restrict blood flow to the limbs during exercise. This creates a hypoxic environment in the muscles, promoting growth and strength with lighter loads. It was developed in Japan by Dr. Yoshiaki Sato and is used for both rehabilitation and performance enhancement. Benefits for Older Adults and Osteopenia For older adults, Kaatsu Training can help combat osteopenia, a condition with low bone density. Studies suggest it can maintain or increase bone density, reducing fracture risk and supporting mobility, especially for those with joint issues like osteoarthritis. Its low-impact nature makes it suitable, allowing strength gains without excessive joint stress. Impact on IGF-1, BDNF, and Neuroprotection Research indicates Kaatsu Training increases Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1), vital for muscle and bone health, and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), important for brain health. This likely contributes to neuroprotection, potentially reducing neurodegenerative disease risk by supporting cognitive function. Benefits for Athletes For athletes, Kaatsu Training can enhance performance by improving muscle strength and hypertrophy with lighter weights. It can also aid recovery by promoting growth hormones, reducing muscle damage, and allowing more frequent, intense training, benefiting Olympians and professional athletes.
