Hypothyroidism

What Is Hypothyroidism?

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which your thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormones. These hormones regulate metabolism, energy, mood, and many other vital functions. Common causes include autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, chronic stress, nutrient depletion, or prior medical treatment (e.g., radiation, surgery).

Symptoms of Hypothyroidism

• Fatigue or sluggishness

• Cold hands and feet

• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight

• Hair thinning or loss

• Brain fog or low mood

• Constipation

• Irregular periods

Even if you’ve been told your thyroid levels are “normal,” you may still have symptoms of suboptimal thyroid function.

Conventional Treatment vs. Our Approach

Most conventional care involves prescribing levothyroxine (a synthetic form of T4), and monitoring TSH levels. While this can help, many patients continue to struggle with symptoms—especially if their underlying drivers aren’t addressed.

At Aligned Modern Health, we look deeper:

• Full thyroid panels, including TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies

• Assessment of nutrients like iodine, selenium, iron, and Vitamin D

• Autoimmune testing when Hashimoto’s is suspected

• Personalized support for inflammation, gut health, and hormone balance

• Ongoing clinical care to adjust your plan as your body responds

Our goal is not just to normalize your labs—but to help you feel like yourself again.
