Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones. The thyroid gland is located in the neck and produces hormones that help regulate metabolism, energy levels, and body temperature. When the thyroid gland is not producing enough hormones, it can lead to a range of symptoms and health problems. At VITALIZE, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of hypothyroidism including Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism. Our team of expert naturopathic doctors is dedicated to helping patients with hypothyroidism find relief from their symptoms and improve their overall health and well-being.

Diagnosis

Diagnosing hypothyroidism involves a series of tests, including a blood test to measure the levels of thyroid hormones in the body. In addition, we may order additional tests to evaluate the function of other organs and systems in the body.

Treatment

At VITALIZE, we offer a range of treatments for hypothyroidism, including:

• Thyroid hormone replacement therapy: We use either synthetic or natural thyroid hormone replacements, which are derived from animal thyroid glands and are identical to the hormones produced by the human thyroid gland. This can help restore healthy hormone levels in the body and reduce symptoms of hypothyroidism.
• Nutritional support: We may recommend dietary changes or supplements to support thyroid health.
• Lifestyle changes: We work with each patient to develop a personalized plan to support overall health and well-being, which can include stress management, exercise, and sleep optimization.

At VITALIZE, we believe in taking a holistic approach to treating hypothyroidism. We work closely with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses their unique needs and goals using naturopathic and functional medicine.
