10 to 1 you know someone who has a thyroid problem! Thyroid problems are often misdiagnosed and mis-treated…and women are often affected the most.

Does this sound familiar? Your labs come back “Normal” and yet you still feel tired, achy, depressed and mentally sluggish. I can’t tell you how many people have been told…”go home, get some rest, your blood work looks normal, you are probably just over worked”.

Or even worse, you are put on thyroid hormone replacement and you still have all the symptoms of hypothyroidism but your lab tests show that your thyroid levels are good. Now what?

Here are some common symptoms:

Tired, sluggish
Can’t lose weight even with exercise
Feel cold—hands, feet, or all over
Require excessive amounts of sleep to function properly
Increase in weight gain even with low-calorie diet
Gain weight easily
Difficult, infrequent bowel movements
Depression, lack of motivation
Morning headaches that wear off as the day progresses
Outer third of eyebrow thins
Thinning of hair on scalp, face or genitals or hair loss
Dryness of skin and/or scalp
Mental sluggishness
Nervousness and emotional
Insomnia
Night sweats
