My Thyroid Health: Thyroid, Midlife Hormones + Weight Loss

Ep. 303: Can Hypothyroidism Cause Acid Reflux?


Listen Later

Acid reflux and heartburn are usually blamed on food choices, stress, or digestive issues—but what if your thyroid is playing a role? 


In this episode, we explore the surprising connection between hypothyroidism and acid reflux, and why an underactive thyroid can affect everything from stomach emptying to the muscles that keep stomach acid where it belongs.


You'll learn how low thyroid hormone levels may contribute to heartburn, indigestion, difficulty swallowing, and other digestive symptoms that are often overlooked or treated separately from thyroid disease. We also discuss the link between Hashimoto's thyroiditis, gut health, and reflux symptoms, along with the research behind this often-missed connection.


Whether you're struggling with persistent reflux despite medication or wondering why digestive symptoms continue even after a thyroid diagnosis, this episode offers practical insights and solutions. 


🎧 Tune in to learn about thyroid optimization, lifestyle strategies, medication considerations, and the steps you can take to address the root causes of reflux instead of simply masking the symptoms.
