I browsed thru this book briefly, but what I did read let me know this book is a lemon. I could mention several points of misinformation in the little that I read, but I will only mention the statement that made my Gravesian eyes pop further out of my head. The last sentence in the segment about the antithyroid medication PTU says, Do not take PTU if you are pregnant or nursing. The authors clearly are not aware that the treatment of choice for pregnant and breastfeeding women is PTU! If they dont know this fact, I would doubt any other information in the book. I wouldnt waste my money on it. Thyroid Balance: Traditional and Alternative Methods for Treating Thyroid Disorders >

We subscribe to the HONcode principles. Verify here Q: For years I have had a weight problem, very low energy, and I'm always cold, even when others aren't. I've tried to diet without success. Could I have a thyroid problem? Dr. Donnica: You could. Ironically, most women with weight problems think that the cause is an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), which may cause weight gain and sluggishness among its many other symptoms. For 1 in 6 women over age 60, this is likely, which is why all Americans 60 and over are encouraged to have thyroid screening tests. Far fewer younger adults are affected, but regardless of your age, it is worth getting tested with the symptoms you've described. In addition to the symptoms you've mentioned, other symptoms of hypothyroidism include fatigue; mood swings; decreased appetite (despite unexplained weight gain); menstrual irregularities; infertility; forgetfulness; dry, coarse hair and skin; hoarse voice; difficulty swallowing; muscle cramps/stiffness; constipation; hair loss; and depression.

Distressed thyroid Thyroid function is affected by various conditions including auto-immune disease, stress and pregnancy. Jean Rothwell , a pharmacist who has experienced thyroid problems first hand, outlines the effects OBJECTIVES To be aware of how thyroid problems and auto-immune diseases are linked To recognise associated eye diseases To be aware of the effects of pregnancy and stress on thyroid function To recognise other conditions that can stress the thyroid The links between auto-immune thyroid diseases and other auto-immune diseases are known but not fully understood. Links have also been found between thyroid disorders and pregnancy and stress. The principles of overactivity and underactivity of the thyroid gland have already been covered in Pharmacy Update ( Module 1090 Auto-immunity It is not fully understood why patients with auto-immune thyroid diseases sometimes develop other auto-immune diseases. Auto-immune thyroid diseases, eg Graves' Disease (hyperthyroidism) or Hashimoto's Disease (hypothyroidism), tend to occur in the same family, sometimes skipping a generation. If one member of a family develops one of the auto-immune thyroid diseases, it is possible that other members of the same family may suffer another, or the same, auto-immune disease. It could be helpful for individual sufferers to be aware of this link. Community pharmacists, too, might find it useful to know about this connection when discussing health matters with customers. Auto-immune diseases tend to react to stress, making antibodies against the body's own tissues. Some of the auto-immune diseases associated with auto-immune thyroid disease include:

However, in some countries, the tendency to low iodine intake has mostly been corrected by haphazard increases in the iodine content of certain parts of the diet. In the United Kingdom, dairy products may contain extra iodine as a result of adding iodine to cow feed to increase the animals' reproductive performance or of using iodine-containing cleansing agents in the dairy industry.

Thyroid Disorders in Women Functions of the thyroid gland: The thyroid gland, which plays an important role in the body's metabolism, secretes several hormones: thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), and calcitonin. Other functions of the thyroid include regulating body heat and bone growth. The pituitary gland and thyroid gland work hand-in-hand. If the thyroid is emitting below-average levels of thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism), the pituitary gland secretes more thyroid-stimulating hormones (TSH) to stimulate the thyroid gland. How a thyroid disorder affects a woman s body: The functions of the thyroid gland have much to do with a woman's reproductive system, particularly if the thyroid is overactive or underactive. Effects of this imbalance in hormone levels may have the following effects on a woman's body: puberty and menstruation Thyroid disorders can cause abnormally early or late onset of puberty and menstruation. In addition, abnormally high or low levels of thyroid hormone can cause very light or very heavy menstrual periods, very irregular menstrual periods, or absent menstrual periods (a condition called amenorrhea). reproduction An overactive or underactive thyroid may also affect ovulation (the release of an egg for fertilization). Thyroid disorders may prevent ovulation from occurring at all. In addition, the ovaries are at an increased risk for cyst development if the woman has an underactive thyroid (hypothyroid). Severe hypothyroidism can actually cause milk production in the breast, while preventing ovulation.

"Treating an underactive thyroid gland is quite effective, safe, and for the most part, straight forward using hormone replacement. There are now a number of strategies for treating overactive thyroid gland, including radiation therapy, surgery and pharmaceutical interventions. Even protecting the thyroid from overexposure to radiation is fairly simple, but there are logistics and other issues that are problematic." Another class of thryoid illness, according to Dr. Ladenson, are thyroid tumors, which typically present as thyroid nodules, which either are large enough to be felt on physical examination or show up on imaging scans. "For most patients, these are not a condition that will threaten their health," Dr. Ladenson said. He added, however, that the nodules are problematic if they interfere with swallowing or breathing, are associated with over-production of thyroid hormone, or if they are cancerous, which is the case in 5 percent to 10 percent of nodules. The cause of these nodules is not understood in most cases, but they often run in families and can be the result of exposure to radiation.

Introduction Reproduction Pregnancy During Pregnancy ... Glossary A-Z During Pregnancy Pre-existing Conditions During Pregnancy Prematurity Problems Pregnancy Procedures Thyroid Problems and Pregnancy Description The thyroid is a gland located in the neck. The thyroid gland produces hormones which help to control temperature, growth, behavior, blood pressure and heart rate. The thyroid gland can become too active ( hyperthyroidism ) or not active enough ( hypothyroidism ). Treatments for problems with the thyroid include medication, surgery or radiation. Thyroid Problems and Pregnancy Pregnant women and their unborn children generally tolerate mild and moderate thyroid disorders without significant health problems. Infertility is common with severe thyroid disorders. Some treatments for thyroid disease cannot be used in pregnancy because of risk of harm to the developing foetus. Inadequately controlled hypothyroidism in pregnant women is associated with mental retardation and learning difficulties in children. Some forms of hyperthyroidism put a foetus at risk of growing slowly and being at risk for stillbirth . Treatment for hyperthyroidism needs to be monitored carefully to decrease the risk of the foetus developing hypothyroidism Metabolism changes in pregnancy sometimes cause a need to change the dose of thyroid medications. The blood tests used to evaluate thyroid function normally change during a pregnancy and need special interpretations. Some thyroid problems can get worse in the

About Thyroid Disease > A Look at Thyroid Disorders HTDS Guide About Thyroid Disease Section Summary A Look at Thyroid Disorders Checking for Thyroid Disease Treatment of Thyroid Disease Recommendation for Thyroid Check-ups A Look at Thyroid Disorders The thyroid gland, located in the front of the neck just below the Adam's apple, takes iodine from the diet and makes thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormone affects a person's physical energy, temperature, weight and mood. Thyroid diseases generally fall into two broad groups of disorders: abnormal function and abnormal growth (nodules) in the gland. These problems are common in the general population, especially among older people and women. Most thyroid problems can be detected and treated. Functional disorders are usually related to the gland producing too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) or too much thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism). Benign nodules in the thyroid gland are common and do not usually cause serious health problems. These nodules occur when the cell growth within the nodule is abnormal. Nodules can occasionally put pressure on the neck and cause trouble with swallowing, breathing or speaking if they are too large. The thyroid usually functions normally even when nodules are present. Thyroid cancers are much less common than benign nodules. With treatment, the cure rate for thyroid cancer is more than 90 percent.

The difference, of course, stems from the etiology of each condition, and the corresponding difference in correcting those causative factors. As we recall from our understanding of zang-fu pathology (or see my previous articles on hypothyroidism ), hypothyroidism is caused by spleen or kidney qi and/or yang deficiency, liver qi stagnation and blood deficiency, with its corresponding symptoms of lethargy; intolerance to cold; modest weight gain; forgetfulness; and coarse, dry skin. Many times, however, its symptoms are subclinical. The appropriate treatment plan is to tonify the qi and yang of the kidney, move the liver

Do you have dry, coarse skin and hair, a hoarse voice, vision problems or eye irritation? Are you a woman experiencing irregular menstrual problems that seem to have no explanation? If you can answer yes to just a handful of these symptoms, you may have a thyroid disorder. In fact, "an estimated 13 million Americans have thyroid disorders, and more than half of them remain undiagnosed (American Medical Women's Association, 1999a)." Among the most common types of thyroid disorders are hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), benign nodules, inflammations of the thyroid, and malignant cancers (The Endocrine Society, 2000a), which we will discuss in this issue of HealthHints.
