Thyroid 101: The Lowdown on Low Thyroid
The thyroid, that little butterfly-shaped gland in your neck, plays a big role in your overall well-being. It's the mastermind behind regulating metabolism, energy levels, body temperature, and more. But sometimes, it doesn't play fair. When it underperforms, you might experience symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, difficulty losing weight, depression, poor memory, brain fog, hair loss, brittle nails, constipation, dry skin, cold intolerance, and more.
What’s our Solution and Game Plan? Thyroid Management at Solcara Health
Our mission? To be your trusted local experts in Thyroid Management. We know the ups and downs of this gland inside out. While most health care practitioners will “check” your thyroid, the tests run are typically inferior and only provide a sliver of information. Additionally, what most practitioners call “normal” may not be what your “normal” is.
To start off, we will run through blood tests to check those all-important T3 and T4 hormone levels (plus antibody levels to help diagnose and autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s). If the levels are off-kilter and the patient complains of symptoms, we've got a plan. Our expert team can prescribe the right medications, tailored just for you. The catch? You'll need to take them daily, but we've got your back.
It's Not Just Pills: Lifestyle Matters
Medication is just one part of the puzzle. We're all about holistic health. We'll also guide you towards lifestyle changes that help your thyroid thrive. Eating right, avoiding some trigger foods, getting moving, managing stress, and catching those Zs - it all adds up to a healthier thyroid and a happier you.

What is thyroid treatment?
Thyroid treatment involves the use of medications and lifestyle changes to help regulate levels of T3 and T4 hormones, which are produced by the thyroid gland in the neck. These hormones help regulate metabolism, energy levels, body temperature, and other bodily functions.
How do I know if I need thyroid treatment?
If you experience any symptoms associated with low or high thyroid hormone levels including fatigue, depression, memory problems, weight gain, dry skin and hair loss – it’s important to to your doctor who can diagnose this condition through a blood test and suggest an appropriate course of action for effective management.
What medications might be used for thyroid treatment?
The most common type of medication prescribed for thyroid management is hormone replacement therapy, which involves taking synthetic or porcine versions of T3 and/or T4 hormones daily. We also offer compounded formulations to customize the exact dose to fit our patient’s needs.
Are there any lifestyle changes I should make to support my thyroid treatment?
Yes, eating a balanced diet rich in nutrients, exercising regularly, reducing stress levels and getting enough rest are all important components of successful thyroid management for low thyroid. Additionally, avoiding certain foods and chemicals can help reduce symptoms related to the condition.
Is medication the only solution?
Nope! We believe in a holistic approach, including lifestyle tweaks, to support your thyroid health.
Will I need to take medication forever?
In most cases, yes, but it's a small price to pay for your well-being. Plus, we'll make it as easy as possible for you. However, we have helped many patients be able to wean off medication after other key factors such as diet, inflammation, and hormones are well balanced.
