This is From Dr. Rahila Shaikh From Dr. Rahila’s Holistic Health & Hijama House Kurla, Mumbai (Unani Consultant, Cupping Expert & True Healer)

As we have talked about causes of hypothyroidism in the last blog, in today’s topic we will be learning about symptoms. First of all before treating any disease we have to treat its root cause first. Symptomatic treatment is not the actual treatment. Nowadays many patients are tensed because of hair fall and overweight and when we take their history, we come to know that patients are taking medicine for thyroid from 10 to 15 years that is the main reason for hair fall and weight gain. Patients should understand that before treating hair fall and weight gain they have to cure their thyroid because it is the main reason for hair fall and weight gain. Some patients who are chronic in this disease when we take their history we come to know that when they get diagnosed with thyroid they took medicine for several years later on they too got diagnosed with diabetes and blood pressure because of thyroid medicines. Now they have to take 3 pills at a time and after 10 to 15 years of complications patients come to us for treatment. So people should be aware that symptomatic treatment is not a treatment of disease and if your thyroid level is high or low you should be concerned about how to cure your body immune system and proper functioning of thyroid glands without taking pills from outside.

What are the symptoms of hypothyroidism?

Hypothyroidism is of three types

• Primary – The primary problem is in thyroid glands

•  Secondary – Secondary problem is in the pituitary gland 

•  Territory – In territory the problem is in the hypothalamus (brain)

Because T3 and T4 hormones, thyroid stimulating hormones and thyroid stimulating hormones play a role in the level of thyroid gland balancing. Stimulating hormones (THS)is first checked by doctors that are secreted by the pituitary gland if it is low or high then T3 and T4 are checked.

What is hypothyroidism?

When T3 and T4 levels are decreased and THS is increased it is called hypothyroidism. Symptoms of hypothyroidism and metabolism is slowed in this process. When metabolism is slower all the symptoms are visible in the body because thyroid plays a main role in the body’s metabolism.
