Re: Thyroid issues
Hi HJ,
Haven't read all the posts, but the symtomps you describe:
weight gain, hair loss, tiredness, need of sleep, I have to "guess"
that most probably you're suffering from thyroid hormone deficiency
(hypothyreoidism)
Before doing anything wait for the lab results first, then you will
know for sure.
In case of a hypo you will need thyroid hormones suppletion.
The thyroid is important in many bodily functions. Feeling sleepy
could be caused by an anemia, as the hormone is
also needed in the production of blood.
I am sorry but don't know any alternative therapy for treating
hypo or hyperthyreoidism.
Just curious, have you changed your diet into vegetarian?
Too much of tofu can induce hypothyreoidism.
Take care!
Blessings
