Hypothyroid Treatment

How an Underactive Thyroid Affects Your Whole Body

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck. It is responsible for releasing thyroid hormone which activates and energizes many of the body’s systems. When your thyroid is under-performing it doesn’t release sufficient quantities of this hormone which can result in a wide array of symptoms including:

  • Fatigue
  • Daytime sleepiness
  • Weight gain
  • Depression
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Dry/rough skin
  • Hair loss
  • Cold intolerance
  • Muscle aches
  • Constipation

Personalized Thyroid Care That Goes Beyond Lab Results

At Primal, we assess your thyroid levels in relation to how you’re feeling, not just your lab results. To help relieve symptoms, we use personalized treatment plans that may include desiccated thyroid, levothyroxine (T4), or liothyronine (T3), depending on your individual needs.
