Thyroid Optimization

Thyroid optimization can assist with weight loss, mental health and well-being, skin, hair and nail issues, heat and cold intolerance, energy levels and the "afternoon slump". An optimized thyroid can also improve cognition, promote an overall sense of well-being as well as slow down the aging process by addressing deficiencies in thyroid hormones.

If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms; depression, weight gain, cold intolerance, achy muscles and joints, hair loss, itchy or dry skin, you may want to consider a thyroid work up.

In our office, we provide more comprehensive thyroid testing than otherwise done at annual physicals. We can also provide further genetic testing for enzymes that convert thyroid hormones. T4 is the most commonly prescribed thyroid medication but doesn't provide symptom relief for every person, we test to assess how effective these medications are for your body.
