Solving the Puzzle with Dr. Datis Kharrazian

Episode 18: How hypothyroidism causes depression and anxiety


Listen Later

If you struggle with chronic depression, anxiety, or other mood disorders, you may suffer from undiagnosed hypothyroidism. A thyroid hormone deficiency can cause multiple brain-based symptoms. This is because thyroid hormones play an important role in the function of many areas of the brain, including neuron health, brain immune cells called neuroglia, and the blood-brain barrier. If you have a chronic mood disorder, consider asking your doctor to screen for hypothyroidism with a TSH test and for autoimmune Hashimoto’s with a TPO and TGB antibody test in order to rule these conditions out. Learn more in this podcast episode or in my online course, Hashimoto's: Solving the Puzzle.
