Understanding the perimenopause-thyroid connection: achieving hormonal balance after 40
Ever wondered why your body feels out of sync during perimenopause? Let's dive into the heart of the matter as we unravel the intricate relationship between perimenopause and the function (or dysfunction!) of your thyroid.
Join me, Sarah McLachlan, The Perimenopause Naturopath, as we explore how the decline of progesterone can lead to an increased risk of autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's thyroiditis. We also probe into how fluctuating oestrogen levels can interfere with the conversion of thyroid hormone T4 to T3, impacting your metabolism, energy and weight.
In our discussion, we discover how an excess of oestrogen can lead to symptoms of hypothyroidism, throwing the equilibrium between our sex hormones, stress and thyroid hormones into disarray. But it's not all chaos! In understanding these disruptions, we find ways to achieve balance by optimizing the function of our elimination organs like the liver, kidneys and bowel. So, whether you're weathering the hormonal storm or are keen to understand the perimenopause-thyroid connection better, this episode will help you understand WTH is happening with your hormones.
