THYROID ASSESSMENT

One of the most common hormone disorders, thyroid dysfunction can elicit a wide variety of symptoms including fatigue, depression, coldness, cognitive dysfunction, weight gain, poor sleep, menstrual abnormalities, decreased memory and altered sex drive to list a few.

Various serum blood tests are available to analyze thyroid hormone secretion and metabolism, including central (brain) thyroid regulation, peripheral conversion and thyroid autoimmunity. For a more general understanding of thyroid metabolism, basal body temperature readings may also be used.
