Resolving The Hypothyroid Weight Loss Struggle

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


If your hypothyroid weight loss results are dismal, this will be one of the most important messages you'll ever read.

As you know, one of the most common symptoms of hypothyroidism is weight gain, and, if your thyroid is running at half speed, how can you lose weight?

Common suggestions for such a condition have been diet and exercise. This is a treatment dimension that will be discussed in another platform. It is recommended that you get proper treatment though this is not easy.

The experience and expertise of your doctor determines whether you get a solution or not. The dilemma becomes how to identify the right doctor. The solution lies in the answers given for the following questions.

How many tests will you carry out on me before recommending medication?

The tests are monthly before treatment.

What choices do I have regarding treatment if I am diagnosed with hypothyroidism?

Your choices are pegged on administered drugs .

How many types of thyroid problems are there?

There are two varieties, primary hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's.

Is antibody testing part of thyroid treatment?

It depends on the type of condition you have since Hashimoto's requires such a test.

How do you treat the immune system?

If you have Hashimoto's you NEED immune support.

What is the effect of eating habits on improvement or deterioration of the condition?

Diet plays a very big part in hypothyroid weight loss.

The experiments will begin immediately after identifying the right doctor. The experimentation part is necessary because each patient has unique biochemistry. The reaction of each person to similar medical procedures and dosage is different.

Years ago before testing was available, doctors determined if treatment was working by what their patients told them. Today, doctors are armed with sophisticated testing, yet the best evidence to determine if your treatment is working is your testimonial. This is why it's so important that you are aware of how you're feeling.

Hypothyroid weight loss changes will occur subtly along with your other symptoms, assuming you have the right treatment. So, you need to pay close attention to how you feel day in and day out. Do not get obsessed with watching the scale!

It is necessary to take note of any symptom that bothered you before seeking medical attention. Ensure that you record their severity. During the process of treatment, you will establish how the symptoms change. This will be a sign of things getting better or worse.

The changes are not drastic but it is possible to feel the effect within weeks. Notify the doctor if no change happens so that treatment can be changed. It is paramount that the doctor listens to you otherwise you have a right to look for another one.

Your weight and hypothyroidism go hand in hand and if you focus on your weight, it will drive you nuts. You will only get more frustrated if dieting and exercise hasn't moved the number on the scale.

Hypothyroid weight loss depends on the nature of treatment you receive. Observe symptoms that indicate change. This tells you whether treatment is effective or not.
