Managing Your Thyroid Health: A Doctor's Perspective
What are thyroid disorders?
Hypothyroidism causes tiredness, weight gain, feeling cold, dry skin and low mood. Hyperthyroidism causes weight loss, anxiety, tremor, heat intolerance and palpitations.
When to seek medical advice
See a GP for persistent tiredness, weight changes, mood changes or heat/cold intolerance. A simple blood test measures thyroid function.
Available treatments
Levothyroxine replaces thyroid hormone in underactive thyroid. Carbimazole or propylthiouracil treat overactive thyroid, sometimes followed by radioactive iodine or surgery.
What to expect
Levothyroxine is taken once daily, usually for life, with regular TSH blood tests. Overactive thyroid treatment typically lasts 12 to 18 months.
Self-care
Take levothyroxine on an empty stomach, away from calcium, iron and coffee. Attend regular blood tests and report any new symptoms.
