Wondering if it’s Your Thyroid? Do you feel like you have Thyroid Symptoms but your labs are normal? We hear this almost everyday from our patients. Our team can help you optimize your thyroid and health.
They have ALL the typical thyroid symptoms but labs are not showing it. This is because many times only TSH is run or TSH and T4. We look at TSH, Total and Free T4, Total and Free T3, Reverse T3, thyroid antibodies, plus IgF-1 and pituitary function. This allows us to take a comprehensive assessment of your thyroid and hormone health.
If you are struggling with symptoms like weight gain despite diet or exercise, sleep problems, hot flashes, depression, cold hands and feet, thinning or losing hair, brain fog, dry skin, infertility, and constipation know that more is going on beneath the surface.
Did you know that the thyroid is not a one size fits all?
There are up to 8 different patterns for thyroid problems that are overlooked and not properly cared for in traditional endocrinology and lab testing. This means that if you have gone to your doctor, been told your labs are normal and you are fine but you know that you are NOT fine, chances are you have a unique thyroid pattern that is not being addressed. are being treated like everyone else BUT you may have a pattern that is very different and requires a more comprehensive approach to corrective care.
Here at Guyer Wellness Group, as your primary care provider, we take more than just traditional TSH labs. We look at a variety of factors that play a role in your thyroid’s health and function. Where others only look at one or two lab values, we assess you for proper hormone conversion at the site of the cell and organs, nutritional co factors essential to thyroid health and the interconnected role between your thyroid to your heart, adrenal glands, brain, hormones, immune, and gastrointestinal systems. All of those factors must be evaluated when determining if there is a thyroid condition.
