This could be keeping you from losing weight…
Today I want to talk about something that impacts weight loss for tons of people: Hypothyroidism.
.
Hypothyroidism happens when your thyroid isn't producing and releasing enough thyroid hormone into your bloodstream.
This manifests in a variety of symptoms, but most commonly we see:
Weight gain Lack of energy Hair loss Constipation Difficulty losing weight Inability to tolerate cold temperatures
Our thyroid acts as a multi-tasker in our bodies- it regulates growth, metabolism, and other body functions by releasing a consistent amount of thyroid hormones into our bloodstream. 
So what causes hypothyroidism or underactive thyroid? 
Auto-immunity Pituitary disruption Inflamed gut Genetics Nutrient deficiencies Trauma Medications
When our thyroid is being influenced by these factors 
it makes sense that one of these culprits is causing the thyroid to become underactive and manifest symptoms.
Treating hypothyroidism:
When treating hypothyroidism, it is important to consider more than just your TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) levels!
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, ask your doctor to have your TSH, Free T4 and Free/Total T3, Reverse T3, and TPO/TG antibodies tested to figure out what is happening with your thyroid! 
If your TSH levels are out of whack, you can keep your hypothyroidism under wraps by managing your stress, getting enough sleep, and optimizing your diet and training!
