The thyroid gland is a small, butterfly-shaped organ located at the base of the neck, just below the Adam’s apple. Despite its size, it plays a vital role in overall health and wellness by producing hormones that regulate how the body uses energy. These hormones—primarily thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3)—influence nearly every system in the body.
Thyroid Hormone Optimization
What do you know about Thyroid Gland?
Understand your thyroid gland
Thyroid has the following effects on your body:
Metabolism: How quickly your body converts food into energy.
Temperature Regulation: Keeping your body temperature stable.
Heart and Muscle Function: Supporting circulation, strength, and endurance.
Brain Health: Affecting memory, mood, and concentration.
Reproductive Health: Influencing menstrual cycles, fertility, and pregnancy.
Disturbances in Thyroid activity:
When the thyroid is functioning normally, the body maintains balance and energy with ease. But when hormone production is too low (hypothyroidism) or too high (hyperthyroidism), it can cause a wide range of symptoms that impact daily life and long-term health.
When your thyroid is under functioning, you will have
Weakness, feeling cold, tired & fatigued.
Thin hair, thin skin, thin nails.
Weight gain, increased body fat.
Causes of Thyroid Dysfunction
Decreases production of thyroid hormones over time due to decreases in gland function.
Loss of energy and motivation.
Loss of cognition and memory.
Poor sense of well-being and depression.
Menstrual irregularities.
Bowel dysfunction, constipation, diarrhea.
Loss of hair & eyebrows.
Because these symptoms are often mistaken for stress, aging, or other health conditions, thyroid imbalances can go undiagnosed for years. Identifying these warning signs early is essential for restoring hormonal balance, improving energy, and protecting long-term health.
Causes of Thyroid Dysfunction
- Decreases production of thyroid hormones over time due to decreases in gland function.
- Decreases in conversation of T4 to T3.
- Insensitivity/resistance of the receptor site causing symptoms of low thyroid in the presence of normal blood levels.
