Many people with Hashimoto’s have experienced it—the frustration of knowing something is wrong but being repeatedly dismissed by doctors. This week, Inna welcomes Dr. Efrat Lamandre (Dr. E) to uncover why so many thyroid patients struggle to get answers and how medical gaslighting keeps them stuck in a cycle of misdiagnosis and neglect.

Dr. E, a best-selling author and expert in patient advocacy, explains why conventional medicine often overlooks key thyroid issues. She shares how doctors are trained to rely on a limited set of tools, without digging deeper. When those tests come back “normal,” patients are told their symptoms aren’t real or that their fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog must be due to stress or aging. But the reality? Hashimoto’s and thyroid dysfunction go far beyond TSH, and without the right tests, people can go undiagnosed for years.

Inna and Dr. E dive into the most common signs of medical gaslighting and why it happens, from unnecessary weight loss advice to outright dismissal of symptoms. They also reveal why conventional providers often refuse to run crucial tests. Heather’s story, a real-life case from Inna’s Thyroid Mystery Solved program illustrates how damaging this dismissal can be and why proper testing and advocacy make all the difference.

Beyond lab tests, Dr. E emphasizes an often-overlooked key to healing: nervous system regulation. Before addressing diet, supplements, or detox, the body needs to feel safe, something many Hashimoto’s patients don’t even realize is missing. She shares simple yet powerful ways to support the nervous system that anyone can do right away.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed by your doctor or wondered why your symptoms aren’t taken seriously, this episode will open your eyes to the truth about thyroid care—and, more importantly, empower you with the knowledge to take control of your health.
