Hypothyroid or low thyroid in Colorado Springs:
Hypothyroidism is an underactive or sluggish thyroid. Sometimes the problem is decreased production of the thyroid’s main hormone, thyroxine (T4). But T4 also has to be converted into its active form, triiodothyronine (T3), by the liver and kidneys. Disruption in any one of these processes can contribute to hypothyroidism
Hypothyroid patients treated with T4‑only drugs may suffer lingering effects because they're missing the right amount of T3, the most potent form of thyroid hormone as well as the main form that works in brain cells.
Switching from T4 treatment to the T4/T3 combination regimen may begin to resolve emotional and physical symptoms, including depression, as soon as a week after the treatment is started.
