Common Symptoms of Hypothyroidism

Hypothyroidism is commonly misdiagnosed because most doctors use blood tests solely to make a diagnosis. The problem with this is that blood tests only show the amount of thyroid that’s in your bloodstream, not what’s being utilized within your cells. Plus, 95% of patients fall into the “normal” range and there is not a blood test to show how much thyroid is in your cells. This is why a true diagnosis must be made on clinical symptoms. Blood work is certainly a helpful tool, but not a sole means of diagnosis.
Maybe your doctor has said, “your blood tests look normal,” but you don’t feel normal. Common symptoms of low thyroid include low energy, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, dry skin, brittle nails, headaches, enlarged tongue, poor sleep, and the list goes on.
