Ultimately it is important to recognize that each person may require a slightly different treatment approach to optimize thyroid function- this is why we work with you to determine a personalized approach to find your optimal health!
It is important when being assessed or treated for thyroid dysfunction that a comprehensive hormone panel be done regularly. This can include testing for:
Thyroid hormones T3 and T4 as well as TSH
Thyroid antibodies such as anti-TPO and anti-TG
Sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone
Adrenal hormones including a 4-point cortisol assessment to determine if the adrenal glands are producing cortisol at appropriate levels throughout the day
