- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ธ.ค. 2018
- In this video I go through hypothyroidism. We cover the causes of hypothyroidism (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, iodine deficiency, treatment for hyperthyroidism, medications and hypopituitarism). We then cover the features and presentation of hypothyroidism, investigations for hypothyroidism and the management of hypothyroidism.

I was diagnosed last month and I am now on medication but I know that people before the diagnosis did see me as lazy and costantly making up excuses when I said I feel tired, nauseous, I need to sit in the shade I can't take the sun etc. I felt like a failure because of how people treated me
That was my case too, except I've always known I had hypothyroidism, I just was ignorant as to how dire the medication was... so I ignorantly, stopped taking the medication, resulting in all these symptoms..... lol please... dont ever stop taking your meds like I did. I take synthroid, or levathyroxin.
I also have thyroiditis and suffer a lot in the heat. I dread Summer so much that I change my schedule and sleep during the day. And do whatever I have to do at night when it's much cooler. Fortunately I'm retired and can do what's best for me.
update: after being diagoned a lot of people felt bad of how they labelled me as lazy but 1 month later I am lazy again because you got tired of reminding everyone about it and they just forget.
I felt the same. I was so hard on myself for gaining weight and i cpuld only loose weight by starving. I got called lazy too. Im so upset
@@TocaToastLilly did meds help you feel energy again?
the fatigue is horrible from this... it's so miserable
that's just to real it like a fatigue are tiredness that does not go away
Dr Tom,we the med students love you for your great effort in teaching us !
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I am a family nurse practitioner student and have found your videos are an exceptional addition to my readings. God bless you and the work you do for us students!
thanks doctor tom thanks for all the team this channel is true gold for medical students
So calm and clearly explained...no need to revise again... thank-you so much
Thank you. The way you explain it makes it easy to understand.
Thank you. Brilliantly and yet concisely explained.
Wow no one has ever told me that hashimotos can cause pleural effusion! This explains a lot! Thank you
Thank you! It’s difficult to find information on Hyperthyroidism (without using Dr. Google). I’ve just been diagnosed, but have had symptoms for at least ten years. Never thought it could be a thyroid issue. Now, I know it is and can manage it.
Amazing, I loved this. Even as a doctor already this short style videos are very good at refreshing this knowledge. Thanks!
thanks!
Why do so many of us not feel better on levothyroxine
I have had this for 20 years. It's been one hell of a rollercoaster!!
thank you for the written notes! ❤ this really helps a lot
Glad to help!

So glad to help. Glad you liked it
IT WAS VERY HELPFUL THANK YOU SO MUCH.
This Video clearly defines hypothyroidism and it is great
Just had a check up and this is one of the findings for me. :(
This is glorious, I've been looking for "your thyroid problems solved book" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Yannabarn Vanish Thyroid - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my colleague got amazing results with it.
Thanks for the video.. It helped a lot..!
Great video! Straight to the point. I have a great understanding now
Rit
thank you for that amazing explanation
I had to drop a comment. Thank you so much. It's really helpful!!!
I think u should tell us more about the causes of dry skin , ascites and other clinical features
Well explained. Thanks doctor 🌷
Thank you very much for your amazing help.
This was very helpful. I hv a better understanding of hypothyroidism
thank you so much for great information
Thank you for the information. The reason I researched this is my 3 month old greatgranddaughter was just diagnosed with Hashimotos disease.
We were lied to. My 3 month old who is now almost 4 months old does not have Hashimotos she was being starved. Praise God for the healing of your husband & praise God the little baby don’t have it.
Very well explained. Thank you.
Thanks doctor very helpful 🙏🏻
amazing one ,this is what a student wants
I'll keep them coming
@Smith Sharma I doubt it. This is coming from someone that's been born with hypothyroidism. You can treat it but as far I been told, there's no cure.
wow i love your website. brilliant!
great work as usual!
I've had this for a few years now, had tsh of about 24 before I started my medication. Been feeling good until a couple weeks ago so I'm going to get checked to see if I need to up the dose 😕
Very good explanation. Thanks. What could be the reason why Thyroid problem occur in the first place.
Thankyou for explaining. This helped me learning about my condition significantly.
Molly Moko good luck 😉! Hope you are doing well... !
This video is nice , thank you sir🌹
Thank you for your helpful videos 🙌❤
Thank u so much.. pls put more videos.. they are useful
Knew I have hashimotos for a few years, just found out yesterday my tsh was 12.4
That explains all the emotions and weight gain
My Anti tyroglobulin high they said it's hashimotos it's need probiotic and then foods so I'm taking fermented cooked rice daily in the morning.
Saw my doctor yesterday going over my blood work results and found my TSH is at 10.67. Dealt with depression about 10 years ago, always had a small bald spot on my head, itchy/dry skin in a very humid summer, and muscle aches.
@@RosettaStoned1992 I went through something similar except I didn’t have much symptoms u said but my TSH was 17
The sad thing is I’m only a teen and have no family history of this :’’( it’s pretty sad to find out that it’s life-long
@@Floral_skies2727 I feel you stay strong
Great video thanks for explaining such important topic
Glad it was helpful!
I have Hypotherodisme and this was very informative and helpfull thank you
Thank you very much for your channel. I just found out that I have Hypothyroidism. It all makes sense now, why have I felt like trash this past year. I was lucky that my hair didn't fall out, but the other symptoms were spot on. I just subscribed; and I'm really looking forward to learning more about this and finding out how to balance myself. There's no more mystery to hypothyroidism. We now know how to deal with it. And thousands of people like you are proof of that.Click here for more information : tinyurl.com/yyycc6rd?HUgio4 > ♣♣♣♣
@@weldasurlianti67 You are doing the right thing by educating yourself.
Just a tip, if your doctor has not already checked your vitamin D levels do ask him to. It is common for new comers to have their vitamin D levels depleted.
@@ghostcat11 i am newly married and have hypo due to hashimoto can I get pregnant ,TIA
So precise and sooo good 🤩🤩
Hello...Informative and easy to understand... Im SHO of family medicine...Thank you

Vv helpful
It's so nice thank you so much
I was born without a thyroid and have taken medication once a day since I was a few weeks old. I came here for casual research but I don’t think this is for my case specifically but it’s a great , informative video though.
In your case you need T3 and the best is probably dissecated thyroid since it's as close to having a thyroid you can get
Thanks for good lecture 👊🏽👊🏽
Thank u so much , ur lectures are very helpful ✌️😃
Glad to help. thanks for your encouragement
It's Amazing plz make videos on topic of neuro
Just found out I have this Yee haw 🥴
same same 🤩
Me too...😔
Me too
I had major problems breathing even with cpap. Feeling like breathing through a straw, even when standing up. I took my doc meds to make T4 (levothyroxine) a little bit at a time. Swelling went down over a few days. I started taking a iodine supplement too. Very very scary not being able to breathe.
Well i ahev had this for like years :( and i anve lots of medicine and now its getting worse
Great presentation
Woohoo this was so helpful thank you
Great video mate
This is interesting, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's over a year ago. My TSH was almost non-existent while T3 and T4 were normal. Anti TPO and Anti Tg were sky hight. I was then sent to do a brain scan which came back clean.
All I was ever given were beta blockers for my tachycardia and selenium, 200 micro grams daily. No hormones whatsoever. When I did a checkup TSH became normal along with everything else.
@@12xenn45 well it depends on what problem there is, my Hashimoto just needs selenium, idk who prescribes hormones immediately... My friend got to take euthirox but half of her thyroid is removed so she needs it.
Selenium did its thing, I will continue to take it for the rest of my life unless things get worse but tgey shouldn't. After my last checkup TSH levels were in normal range so now I take 100 micrograms daily. Look it up, you'll be surprised how impotant selenium is for thyroid 😃
Thank You very much
Thanks for your fantastic demonstration. Just so that you know, there is another cause. My previous GP kept increasing my prescription for opiates (for the pain from my damaged spine) and somehow that has caused my thyroid to stop working... along with other issues; damage to my liver and kidneys. I can't seem to find any information about this type of cause anywhere and I would love to understand it better. Anyway, thanks again xx
Glad the video was helpful
Even my thyroid was triggered by Accutane for Acne
Thank you for this
Thanks for a great video!
Glad you like it!
Thank you doctor isibor
What about t3 t4 combo in medication. I seem to respond better with this.
merci beaucoup c genial !!!
Thank you for your video
For a long time I thought I have a throat infection... recently I was on antibiotics. I was hoping the infection will disappear but nothing happened! I even bought a mouthwash to aid my throat...but nothing. After reading this. Am going to see And ENT specialist. Thanks soo much.
What were you feeling in your throat ?
What happen to your throat?
sometimes I feel my lymph nodes are swollen.
This helped me understand my disease better. Thank you.
Glad it helped
DarkeCrimson hello. How are you? We were wondering how are you treating hypothyroidism? Hope you are not just relying on medications which in the long run are not very beneficial.
Unfortunately, thyroid problems affect your body 360 degree so it is important that you are well prepared about this condition so you know how to tackle it.
Good luck and if you have some doubts we are happy to help you. 🙂
Thank you so much
Thank you ♥️
Excellent explanation. How can I purchase this book?
Thank you ✨✨
My thryroid was a 358 when I got it first tested - I thought I was going crazy and I was loosing after gaining 30 pounds in 2 months because of hypothyroidism. Like I was eating a well balanced diet in a safe deficit and exercising 5-7 days a week, and was still gaining weight. Literally was crying everyday bc I didn’t know what was going on and I was so frustrated bc I had just sustainably lost weight after being overweight my whole life. Months before this weight gain though, my hair started falling out, like it was always all over my back, all over my clothes, and it would even make its way into my room. I was also extremely cold. One summer day, it was 95 degrees and I hadn’t broken a sweat, and on nights where it was 70 degrees, I was wearing jackets and sweatpants. Just staring my thyroid meds, praying I can lose the weight 🙏!
You’re not alone.
I’ve had this problem for the last two years but I’m undiagnosed. No doctor helps me. I’ve become depressed. Non medicated. Gained 50poubds in one year. I work out as well and can’t loose one pound. No doctor has helped me. I’m going to Mexico this weekend to get help they have the best endocrinologist there. Good luck
@@Sincerelywendyy best of luck to you!
Sounds familiar....once your levels are normal,life gets back to normal
@@j.e.7028 yup! Getting my dosage adjusted today, praying for the best! My life has felt miserable for the past 3 months, I really hope it works

Hello
@@joymonaco274 Hi ya Joy 🤗🥂
It also can cause your nerves to miss fire and cause you to have frequent urination or incontinence, weakend joints, increased joint pain, dry scalp, chronic fatigue, mood swings, sensitive to cold & temperature, brain fog, memory loss that can lead up to dementia. It also messes with your insulin. Can cause diabetes.
If undetected it can kill you because your body temperature drops so low organs shut down.
I was just diagnosed with hypothyroidism after walking around for 5 years with my body starting to shut down. I'm taking a medicine for it but it takes time to balance out the proper dose
Very similar to my wife's. Now we're worried
I was diagnose in the year 2006. Till now Im consuming eltroxin 100 mcg. I loss my hair, joint pain, fatigue n many more . Please check the diet and take medicine .
@vip don’t be, this persons just trying to scare u.
Excuse me, I’m not listening to the trash u think u could say. I’m a teen and have this with not family history and I’m not scared. So, don’t think u could be acting like a doctor on TH-cam and saying stuff that’s false :P
*no family history
normal TSH, elevated TPO antibodies, Is treatment necessary or wait and see approach?
Thanks a lot
Thanks ❤️
Isn't hypothyroidism more likely to cause menorrhagia as opposed to amenorrhoea?
THANK YOU!!!
You're very welcome!
my TSH level was at 176!! i’m only 20 and this has been so hard always feeling tired and not good enough
Love it in short👍
Thanks!
Thx
Useful thanks
My TSH is 5.37, T4 is 1.28. I have fatigue, headache (or head numb, or dizzle alike) for more than 20 years. In 2020, my family doctor diagnosed me as Vitamin B12 deficiency. After taking VB12 supplement, my headache almost went away, with the exception that I feel headache since yesterday unfortunately. I always feel fatigue. I used to be around 125 libs for many years. Last August, I had my left arm broken. A Bone Mineral Density test shows L-Spine: T-score -2.8, Z-score -2.3.
I also notice that I almost lost 10 libs now: a stable 113 libs in everyday check.
I eat less than ever, normally 2 eggs, half chicken drumstick and 1.5 lib loaf for a typical day.
I don't smoke, don't drink alcohol, no fast food for more than 10 years.
I used to slow running for 1.8 miles in 18 minutes outdoor everyday. With a few short distance about 300 feet fast running I could get sweaty.
Now I can only slowly run for 1.4 miles or so in 15 minutes, with only a very shallow sweaty than ever.
On an online search, my TSH/T4 belongs to subclinical hypothyroidism, but my syndrome is so bad that my everyday life is so miserable. My family doctor just refers me to an endocrinologist last week. Does anyone have a similar syndrome of mine? Was it solved in the end? What was your treatment?
Thanks.
Don't you feel some of the symptoms may be linked to you inadequate diet? That's not enough food, especially if you're active. Your description also leaves out many essential nutrients.
Add a piece of fruit and then get really brave and eat the *whole* chicken leg.
Yes!!!!!! I finally feel I’ve found the answer. I feel so horrible about bedtime because I know I’ll just wake up tired. I feel trapped in my body , I don’t wish sleep deprivation on my worst worst enemy.
I feel all that and more. Dizzy all the time, exhausted, tight muscles, etc Hashimoto and fibromyalgia.
I've previously normalized elevated TSH by going vegan & I stayed a vegan for 4 years.
But then I decided to start eating meat again & now I'm back to hypothyroidism! My TSH is now 5.6 & I'll be vegan again very soon.
An optimal TSH needs to be below 2,5... Too little iodine (added to salt) can cause hypothyroidism & too much much iodine can cause hypothyroidism as well. The first one is most common...
Would an over active thyroid gland or under active gland cause a persistent lump like feeling in the throat...I've had it for years ...??? If so is their medication that can be taken, also over weight, and incredibly tired all the time
