Hypothyroid affected My Credibility

I am just 30 and I was at the peak of my career. My boss was so happy with my work and could dot on me for every office requirement. But suddenly, I just started getting tired and my health gave up very badly. I started to lose interest in work and use to get easily irritable. My work efficiency had gone down. I was very confused about my behavior changing. All my hard work was going down the drain and my credibility was getting badly affected. As always I visited my homoeopathic doctor and after hearing my complaints, I was advised to do a blood test for thyroid hormones. I was detected with Hypothyroid and was then prescribed homoeopathic medicines. Gradually my condition improved and I was back to normal life. I had to start from scratch to earn all the credibility I had lost.

Hypothyroid occurs when the thyroid gland fails to produce enough thyroid hormones. Hypothyroid is more common in women than men and the incidences increases with age. Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis (thyroid gland enlarges and forms goitre), Thyroid destruction following secondary to radioactive surgery, Severe iodine deficiency and Stress are known to cause Hypothyroid. A routine blood test for thyroid hormones would confirm the diagnosis.

Look out for any of the following symptoms for confirmation of Hypothyroid

  • Unexplained Weight gain
  • Puffiness/ Swelling of face, eyes and feet
  • Constipation
  • Sluggishness
  • Fatigue; Lack of Energy
  • Dry skin
  • Depression
  • Increased sensitivity to cold
  • Impaired memory
  • Hair thinning/ Hair loss
  • Muscle aches and pains
  • Heavier than normal or irregular menstrual periods.
  • Slower heart rate

Healing with Homoeopathy

Homoeopathy helps to produce thyroid hormone naturally by stimulating the immune system and helps in better functioning of the thyroid gland.

Homoeopathic remedies work by stimulating the body’s own healing capacity by encouraging the body to reactivate hormone secretions.

Homeopathy is free from any side-effects.

Stress causes hormonal disturbances in the body like thyroid problems which is very effectively treated with homeopathy.

Homoeopathy is a mind-body medicine. Homoeopathy treats not only the physical complaints, but also targets the mind and gently restores mind-body equilibrium- thus it treats the patient as a whole.

 A complete recovery is possible in most cases with homoeopathy. Hypothyroid is a known triggering factor for patchy hair loss and homoeopathy treats thyroid problems very effectively.

Self help for Hypothyroid

Regular checkups are a must and report the changes, if any, to your doctor. Caffeinated drinks and dairy products should be avoided. Regular exercise helps to reduce stress and a high fibre diet often helps in maintaining thyroid function and preventing constipation. Apply a good moisturizing cream to combat dryness caused due to hypothyroid. Consume fruits, dry-fruits, green vegetables, beans and legumes in adequate amounts to combat nutritional deficiencies. Any nutritional supplement should be taken under the guidance of your doctor.
