Thyroid Problems? Here are the 10 signs

Thyroid Problems? Here are the 10 signs

Many people are convinced that they have metabolic problems, but this is only partially true.

Clearly, most of the time our metabolism is slowed down by some factors , which are or can be:

  • a not very varied diet, which can easily lead to nutritional deficiencies and may not correspond to the real needs of the organism.
  • the use of drastic, often low-calorie diets
  • the abuse, and not the use, of healthy foods that cause us digestive problems or electrolyte imbalances: too many fibers, too much water, few calories, few nutritious foods, binges of fruit and vegetables in various forms.
  • abuse of unhealthy foods (refined foods, baked goods, fatty and sugary foods)
  • overtraining
  • the stress
  • a sedentary lifestyle. 

But let ‘s say we are right.
That there is actually some health problem that causes us to have a slow metabolism and a tendency to gain weight even when we breathe.
Generally the first checks to do concern the functionality of the thyroid, since thyroid and metabolism are closely related. We can tell from these 10 signs that something is wrong with our thyroid .
Here are the alarm bells.

THE 10 SPIES OF THYROID PROBLEMS

      1. Pain in muscles, joints and joints, syndromes such as carpal tunnel syndromes or inflammation of the plantar nerve.
      2. Dry throat, neck problems such as swelling, enlargement, stiffening, presence of goiter.
      3. Hair loss, change in hair health (too dry or oily), skin problems.
      4. Frequent constipation or diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, indigestion and bloating with every meal.
      5. Menstrual problems such as amenorrhea and fertility problems (but also erectile in men and little or no lubrication in women).
      6. Familiarity with thyroid problems and / or autoimmune diseases.
      7. Hypercholesterolemia.
      8. Depression, mood swings, anxiety, low body temperature before and after meals, low or irregular pulse.
      9. Weight changes and a tendency to gain or lose weight without changing your diet or activity.
      10. Excessive tiredness, fatigue.

What if we have 6 or more of these symptoms?
The analysis of the thyroid activity with dosage of hormones, thyroid antibodies, Tsh, and at the limit of parathyroid hormone, will allow us to understand more, and subsequently meet again with the endocrinologist to understand what to do. For example if we need to integrate T3, T4 and T3, or T4 to correct thyroid function.
In the meantime, we avoid those factors that slow down the metabolism. We avoid restrictive diets of both carbohydrates and calories, we vary the diet and activity, we avoid overeating and we try to cure sleep and lead a less stressful life above all.
Solving the thyroid problem often takes time (even in the case of replacement therapies) for the symptoms to disappear, so I would say that even a holy patience and a little positivity will help us straighten our metabolism and our health!
