This doctor doesn't have a clue. She'll feel better for a while then get worse.
I have Hashimotos and I remembered how I felt when the doctor told me it will be very hard for me to conceive but, all to the glory of GOD that after using DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on CZcams natural infective herbal medication am a mother of four kids......
I have been on thyroid meds since the age of 11. 52 now and there is so much more than just replacing the T4. Depression, joint pain, other autoimmune issues.
Have you had sexual dysfunctions because of it?
Add T3 to feel better
I definitely agree with you Missy. The thyroid affects so many parts of our body that we have to look at things holistically. Hope you're doing better these days!
I had hypothyroid then psoriasis then multiple sclerosis. Still i don't know the root cause
it's all to do with diet as well, any disease can be cured or reversed but it is extremely extremely difficult especially because all of our bodies are different.
This makes it sound way too simple - eg just take the meds and you'll be fine. That just replaces the hormone - but doesn't treat the underlying condition
Check your folic acid levels and liver functions aswell, o have started to take folic acid medication, stopped eating gluten and I am feeling much better aswell. Hope you feel better soon 😊
@@lisa7754 that's absolutely true. Sometimes the disease also come with a lack of vitamin that may cause these symptoms. It's better to go and check or take organic multivitamin tablets for a week and see how it works for you...
Yep, you also need to totally change your diet! I've had hypothyroidism since 2015, but just now found out I have Hashimoto's. It's not just taking a pill. Btw my tsh is optimal but my antibodies are raised. Only way to put your antibodies into remission is with diet change. It annoys me that it is not mentioned in the video.
Sorry, I cant edit my reply. The only way to put Hashimoto's into remission is by getting your antibody level to 0. That requires diet change.
Does anything actually treat the underlying condition? I was diagnosed at 18 and am continuing to need more and more thyroxine each year.
How sad, just take the medication and life will be good. Let’s not talk about gut health. The pharmaceutical industry loves these Doctors. The number one adjustment for Hashimoto’s disease management is the right nutrition and health gut.
so true!!!
It is awful. If I am honest. It has ruined my life. I have gained weight, lost my thyroid but the worst is the SOUl Crushing Depression
I have Hashimoto's disease, but I am worried. How can I fight this disease for many years? Does this disease affect business life, marriage life and social life? Can those who have had Hashimoto's disease for many years inform me, what kind of life do you have?
I am so sorry to know that you have been struggling with Hashimoto’s disease @kirsten. I truly hope you find ways to adjust to this condition with the right lifestyle.
@muslumkaya2727 Hashimoto’s requires some changes in lifestyle so we don’t suffer with too many symptoms. It does not have to be a terrible thing in your life. So many women have this disease and will never know it. I recommend you to do a deep research to get to know the cause and treatment for this disease. We for sure have some challenges to overcome, like easy weight gain, insomnia, low energy, GI disturbances and higher risk for depression. I have adjusted my diet, decreasing a lot of the anti inflammatory foods, special dairy and gluten. I exercise 4x a week and try to get good sleep. Many people live well with Hashimoto’s, don’t be afraid. Instead, use the disease as a reason to create a healthy lifestyle for you as much as possible. I can tell you that I am doing well. I wish you the best of luck.
These comments are freaking me out, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's just this week and I'm only 28 :(
It’s ok I’m 12 and I have it 😊 nothing to worry about if you have meds!
me too, I am taking T4 levothyroxine but it's givin me anxiety
I’m only on progesterone for female hormone replacement. Other than that, I take b12 and d3 for energy. I also try to follow the AIP diet to keep me from feeling sick. Check it out if you can, gluten is horrible with this disease
I'm 12 and I have it but I'm a bit worse at this moment. I think you'll be fine though as long as the meds work. I dont take mine though but idk
I was diagnosed with hashimoto thyroid disease at 15 but I have had longer so I basically had it sense I was 8 years old so I have had it for 11 years
If you have a tire with a hole in it you don't keep adding air, you fix the hole. This video is another sad example of how we are in symptom treating cycle. Fix the problem not just the symptoms. Otherwise you will continue to feel awful while this autoimmune disease continues to destroy your body.
Medication is a bandaid. You need to get to the root of the problem such as figuring out which T cells need repairing.
EXACTLY!!!!!
I agree, I am suspecting to have this as is quite common in my family...I have horrible pains, gain weight so fast and can't lose it (even exercising and having a healthy diet) I am thirsty all the time, constantly passing urine (have to rush to the toilet all the time, which interrupt my sleeping pattern and work life) feel dizzy and tired all the time, and have the worst mood changes...it's a horrible disease... If you're young I think the symptoms are far worse...none of my family members had such bad symptoms like mine
Hashimoto's has ruined my life.... I am done. Meds do nothing at all. I am both hypo and hyperthyroid, depending on the day. My thyroid is the size of a pea and it is gasping for it's last breath. I can't function.. can't think.. lost my business due to 'covid' and can't get a job. Changing the dosage may feel better for a few weeks and then it starts all over again...... I know I will Not Be Fine..... This is just the way I feel.... changing dosage does work for many... not for me. Research needs to be done on Hashimotos.... meds do not treat the problem... they are a bandaid
Damn bro thats sad
How you feeling now? I was thinking of taking my life last week from this disease as well. I’ve lost every relationship, job and happy feeling from it.
@@josephpeters7076 No please don't. I understand how you feel. Hashimotos can make us feel that way. I do best if I take my Prozac too. Get plenty of sleep, no gluten or alchohol. How are you today
@@kirk1007 My life has changed a lot for the better. I’ve turned to comedy now to better my life and others. Haven’t touched alcohol since New Years. Not dating but talking to lots of people. I do get sick of feeling cold all of the time though. Wbu?
What if you have Anti thyroid antibodies but never have abnormal numbers and even have Tsh under 1? What were this ladies numbers that adding hormone made her feel better?
i wonder in what term it is treatable is it a life time pills like the one you give for diabetic patients or it can treat the disease completely so you go thorough this course in specific period of time then you don't have to take anymedication anymore because if it is like diabetic then i don't consider it treatable because treatable for me it means you don't have the disease anymore please answer my concern because my best friend has it and i want to do something to help ..
It is a battle to
Keep it stable. If I’m lucky I get 6 months at a time . Good months then I’m
Out of balance again. But hey it could be worse. Once you learn your pattern you learn to live with it
NDT works better than synthroid for me. Added T3 helped to give me my life back. AIP diet also.
This is a frustrating video. I'm glad that she had positive results, but so many people struggle even after they go on replacement hormone. Autoimmune conditions are much more complex than just looking at hormone levels. Once you start to support the immune system and manage inflammation, then you can start to see positive changes.
And how do you do that?
@@nessieness5433 Hi Nessie, I always think about reducing triggers and using compounds to support immune system function. Triggers most commonly include food sensitivities, poor sleep patterns, emotional stress, and nutritional deficiencies. Support usually looks like getting sleep (again :)), regular movement, and using support like vitamin D, omega 3 fatty acids, glutathione, and vitamin A. Hope this helps! Thanks for asking. Hope you have a great rest of your day :)
My doctor is not doing anything for me so what can I do for myself I lost 70% of my hair in breathing problems and weakness
Doctors (practitioners) over here in Aussie do not check the thyroid glands like the doctor above did with the woman. Doctors over here are far to blood test mad to even bother doing the above procedure as they should and on a regular basis.
I wish I can have a visit with fr Lopez. I been overmmedacated with throyid medeation for over a year and that I only found out from my eye dr when he did intense blood work only to find out I have no throyid I was taking 30 mgs then a dr put me on a test of 150 mg for over a year and forgot bout me so now my throyid went bye bye . And I suffer for this here in Las Vegas I no longer trust certain m.ds-- I am from chicago hopefully one day I can get to dr Lopez in chicago
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in July 2020 and I was taking levothyroxine for about one year and I discontinued it a few months ago and I have not been having any symptoms of Hashimoto's disease like I would if I had stopped a year ago so there is more to this disease than doctors know about or are telling people. how can I have this disease at such a young age with no explanation to how I got it or how to get rid of it? 😞 there's always a way to get rid of illness. i've added some herbs into my diet and being consistent with it I feel like I freed myself from this evil disease
Currently taking Alternative Herbal supplement and cleanser, Doctor Isibor has been a great help. I am so happy 😊😊 seeing the quick improvement taking his treatment to get rid of thyroid goiter and fibromyalgia ......
This video is definitely not telling it all. Way more complex.
What I’d like to know, does your thyroid condition effect your moids
My belief on this subject is "Yes of course" it does! 👍🙂
Ok.... let’s do a follow up 5 years later.
Synthetic thyroid helps for a while until you crash. I was sick for 20 years before I found a doctor who would give my NDT. THEN I felt better
Even on replacement hormones, skin and hair still dry, still fatigued.
Your thyroid hormones are not optimal. T4 should be in mid range and T3 in upper part of range. Check it next time you have labs done.
mine too,I take eltroxin ,and my TSH,T3,T4 are under control,still my hair very dry and skin rashes are common thing😔😔
@@shalgiimurmu7705 how are your eyebrows, mine on only one side are very patchy, dont know why only one side is effected.
I am feeling anxiety with Levothyroxine T4 88 mg
Me age twelve diagnosed with hashimotos and symptoms of depression, anxiety, weight gain and loss, exhaustion, light headedness, random rashes, and pretty much all the symptoms watching this: Hmmmm wow this is not a great reference video 😀
I dont gain weight rather just lose weight
I get migraines sometimes but not very much get rashes. I am currently losing hair also I'm 12 as well
That’s odd, I was just diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease and my doctor said that it is untreatable and that I have to just live with it and monitor my thyroid. When I asked about medications she said there were none so I’m quite confused :(
Which doctor said that? Your primary MD? Or Endocrinologist? (Thyroid Doctor) If you don’t have one then you need to seek abEndocrinologist near you. There’s no cure but there are treatments. I was diagnosed 6 months ago with Hashimoto’s and have been in Synthroid and feel so much better. Please get help. Your life is at risk.
Gihan Musa My endocrinologist
MYNOR ALVAREZ Sorry to hear that. Then I’d recommend getting a new Endocrinologist. Why continue giving business and your money to someone who won’t be of help to you? Please find a new one ASAP. Hashimoto’s gets worse.
Take thyroid meds. Change diets to gluten free. Check Auto Immune Protocol.
I am absolutely miserable. My tsh, free t4 etc all within normal limits but I cannot lose weight. My tpo 3 months ago was over 3000. Over the past three years I've gained 50 lb and I cannot get the weight off even though I went vegan 3 mo ago. I don't know what to do. I take metformin for insulin resistance which by the way I also have PCOS. I don't know what to do I wish somebody could point me in the right direction to lose weight. I'm always so tired and I get short of breath easily
try keto diet
Look into low dose naltrexone - a lot of people with Hashimoto's have reversed their disease & it's not an expensive med.

LoveOne 1Love, you need to look up Hashimotos autoimmune encephalitis, (SREAT) Your TPO is crazy high! Big symptom! You need to be treated for this!
@@erindowling1129 ok thank you. I definitely will
Is hashimoto deasease infectious?just asking,,,tnx
No
No
No, it's generally genetic, but can also have other causes like cancer etc
@@laslocurasdeyas Omg that's shit
William Soriano No, it’s an autoimmune disease.
Currently taking Alternative Herbal supplement and cleanser, Doctor Isibor has been a great help. I am so happy 😊😊 seeing the quick improvement taking his treatment to get rid of thyroid goiter and fibromyalgia ...
This is so not true, this lady probably just has hypothyroid and not Hashimoto, its not as simple as just taking a pill and you fell better! My doctor never examines my thyroid like that, I'm miserable and no thyroid pill helps with my Hashimoto!
Rachel Schultz You got that right. No dr I have ever been to even touches my thyroid and I’ve had this for over 30 years.
How can a pill help as hashimoto is when immune system attacks the thyroid. It’s the immune system that needs to be dealt with. Just bringing t4 and t3 down doesn’t make a difference.Need to sort our diet and calm the immune system, hopefully that will help.
Geez, I wish just taking a pill “cured” this. Very treatable??!!I’d like to smack this Dr & every other one that has failed to help me over the last three decades. I’m now paying out of pocket for an integrative Dr because most Drs are horribly ignorant of thyroid issues, yet too full of ego to listen when you try to share what you know.
Medication is not always necessary. Again this is a push for meds. What about those of us who can’t?
There is a way. Keep looking ladies and gents. See Dr Wentz
I have been diagnosed lately with Hashimoto but I’m underweight while the norm is to b overweight.
im also underweight
Meeting you dr Ogbomon on CZcams is like meeting GOD himself because, you deed in my life what no doctor can't do. Thank you for curing my diabetes 2 completely 🤑🤑..
Makes ur hair break off
Yeah I'm losing hair at this very moment
Living with hypothyroidism was so hard and painful, but thanks to doctor okouromi treatment using herb’s to get rid of thyroid problems…💟☮️💖💖❤️🩹💕💖💗
