Thyroid Health


Symptoms of Thyroid Dysfunction
The thyroid gland produces specific hormones to help with many bodily functions, including thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones help with regulating our body temperature, metabolism, energy levels, heart, digestive system, cognitive function, and menstrual health. But if you have too much thyroid hormone production or have low levels of thyroid hormones, it can negatively impact your overall quality of life and cause a variety of health concerns.
If you experience any of the below symptoms, it could be an indication of a thyroid disorder. Consider scheduling an appointment with a thyroid health specialist to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and restore your health.

Risk Factors For Developing Thyroid Issues
There are several risk factors that make it more likely for someone to experience issues with their thyroid and hormone production. Older individuals and women are at higher risk of developing thyroid disorders, including autoimmune disorders such as Hashimoto’s and Grave’s disease. A family history of thyroid issues can also increase your risk, as well as having other autoimmune diseases, experiencing chronic stress, and smoking. Additionally, people who are in the postpartum period after pregnancy can develop temporary thyroid dysfunction known as postpartum thyroiditis.
What To Expect with Thyroid Treatment at National Wellness Group
I’ve been working with Dr. Yuabova for nearly 2 years and highly recommend working with her. My health issue was resolved about a year after working with her, and I continue to see her to maintain my mental and physical health. She is thoughtful, caring, and clear. Most importantly, she listens and identifies the core of the issue. She is great to work with- in addition to resolving the issue I initially started with, she has resolved quite a few little things that I typically don’t ask a doctor about. I feel much more confident about my health and life in general after working with her. Can’t give a high enough recommendation!
