I'm not exaggerating when I tell you almost 100% of my patients have an additional hormone disorder in conjunction with their hypothyroidism. Let's talk about one of the top ones. Testosterone in women is hugely important. If you don't have enough of it, you have a low sex drive, fatigue, kind of this loss of overall sense of well being, difficulty exercising, recovering from exercise, and doesn't matter how much you exercise, you can't really build up your endurance appropriately or build muscle mass. So if you have a thyroid problem and you have quite a few of these symptoms, get your testosterone checked. My optimal level for women is around 35 to 65, so I hope that helps.
