The thyroid gland truly does not get the respect it deserves. This small gland can cause a lot of health problems that are all too often addressed without considering the cause. Patients with thyroid disorders may experience unexpected weight loss or weight gain, high blood pressure, fatigue and infertility. If you have one of these symptoms, see your Dallas thyroid doctor as soon as possible.

This small gland is shaped like a butterfly and is located in the front of the neck. The hormones it produces control metabolic functions. Patients may notice unexplained weight gain if they have hypothyroidism, or conversely unexpected weight loss if they have hyperthyroidism. These are two of the common disorders of the thyroid.

The condition of hypothyroidism can be manifested in many ways. Almost every woman at some time in her life will experience an imbalance of the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Frequently doctors address the symptoms, which may be hot flashes, osteoporosis, fatigue and decreased libido, to name only a few. When the cause of symptoms is not addressed, the result is a lifetime of taking medication to address the symptom. It is very possible that the symptoms can be eliminated naturally if the physician gets to what condition is causing the symptom.

Everyone knows somebody with high cholesterol or high blood pressure, or both. Maybe you have these conditions yourself. If the doctor prescribes medication to manage these conditions, the blood pressure will lower and the cholesterol levels may come down. But, when the underlying cause is evaluated and addressed, these conditions may return to normal naturally.

The Dallas physician has successfully helped many of his patients return to a state of health with a properly functioning thyroid. He finds out what is causing the patient to have these symptoms, then patient and doctor work to eliminate symptoms naturally and correct the underlying cause.

Once your doctor has identified the factors that are causing the thyroid to malfunction, he can address them naturally and without medication. When your thyroid is functioning properly, the symptoms will disappear.
