EP 255: Why Your Thyroid Labs Are "Normal" But You Still Feel Like Sh*t | Dr. Amie Hornaman
If you've been told your thyroid is "normal" because your TSH came back in range, but you're still exhausted, gaining weight, losing hair, struggling with brain fog, or feeling like a completely different person... this episode is for you. This week, I'm joined by Dr. Amie Hornaman, better known as "The Thyroid Fixer," for an unfiltered conversation about everything conventional medicine often gets wrong about thyroid health. We dive into why TSH isn't enough, the importance of Free T3 and Reverse T3, Hashimoto's, gluten, birth control, metabolic adaptation, over-exercising, under-eating, and why so many women are told they're fine when they clearly are not. We also tackle GLP-1 medications, body positivity, thyroid optimization, and why your symptoms deserve more attention than a single lab value. Whether you're dealing with hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's, stubborn weight gain, hormone issues, or you've simply been dismissed by the healthcare system, this episode will give you a different way to think about your thyroid and your health.
