Cortisol-Thyroid Connection: How stress is linked to low thyroid function


Listen Later

If I had a dollar for every high achieving woman that comes to me with symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, I’d be a very rich woman. 

These women are feeling run down, they have low moods,  high levels of anxiety, thinning hair and a host of other symptoms that they just can’t seem to move through. 


They’ve already been to the doctor and have been told that it’s not their thyroid because their TSH levels are fine, but they don’t know where else to look.


Unfortunately, thyroid dysfunction is extremely common, but you need to look further than your TSH levels to get to the bottom of it. Your pathology panel needs to include levels of T4, T3, TSH and your thyroid antibodies. This will give you a clearer picture and establish where your thyroid is at.


Once it’s been confirmed that you are suffering from thyroid dysfunction, the next step is to understand the causes of this dysfunction and where you can make changes to improve your health.


In this episode, I break down some common causes of thyroid dysfunction, and how to manage them.
