Understanding the Missing Piece to your Thyroid Wellness

Elise Murguia (January 3, 2024)

Despite being on thyroid medication, countless new patients come to my clinic tired of feeling fatigued, held back by brain fog, and struggling with uncontrollable weight gain. If you've been stuck in the endless loop of treatments without seeing the results you desire, it's time to dive into the core issue with an expert. I'm here to introduce you to Modern Thyroid Clinic, where we specialize in giving people their lives back by addressing the fundamental reason behind persistent thyroid symptoms. 

The majority of individuals who come to Modern Thyroid Clinic share a fundamental metabolic issue, known as a conversion disorder. This disorder prevents the transformation of inactive hormone (T4) to its active counterpart, T3. The inability to convert these hormones naturally leads to a range of debilitating symptoms, and here at MTC, we have identified a solution to address this problem.

To better understand our approach at MTC, it is important to understand the conversion process. Our bodies naturally activate thyroid hormones, providing us with the energy and clarity needed for daily life. However, various factors can impede conversion, leaving us feeling fatigued and unwell. Inflammation, micronutrient deficiencies, and stress are among the factors that impact the conversion of thyroid hormones. At Modern Thyroid Clinic, we emphasize the importance of adopting a low-inflammatory diet, ensuring proper nutrient intake, and managing stress through techniques like meditation.

For those who have tried various lifestyle changes without significant improvement, we offer a life changing solution. Traditional thyroid medications like Levothyroxine often contain inactive hormones (T4). However, if you are struggling to convert this form to T3, it is often underwhelming in the relief it is meant to provide. At Modern Thyroid Clinic, we prescribe medications with active hormones, such as Liothyronine, Cytomel, or Armor, to restore balance and vitality to our patients each and every day. 

If you've been struggling with thyroid symptoms despite your best efforts, it's time to explore the missing piece to your wellness puzzle. Modern Thyroid Clinic is here to guide you through the intricacies of thyroid health, offering personalized solutions and the expertise needed to reclaim your life. Don't settle for a life of needless suffering – take the first step toward thyroid wellness with us!
