When it comes to health, the thyroid often takes center stage. But rarely is a thyroid issue isolated to just the thyroid. The thyroid's function is intricately linked to other hormones produced in the brain, adrenal glands, ovaries, and pancreas.

Many conventional practitioners rely solely on TSH to evaluate thyroid health, which may lead to missed diagnoses. I often see new patients who display classic symptoms of low thyroid function but have been told their thyroid tests are "normal." A comprehensive thyroid panel often reveals underlying issues.

Thyroid health is one of the most common reasons why patients seek my care - and for good reason! Optimal thyroid function is an essential component of your health and well-being. Your thyroid gland is part of your hormone system (also referred to as your endocrine system). The thyroid gland is shaped like a butterfly and is located inside your neck over your windpipe.
