YouTube Description
as posted by the channel1 out of 8 women will develop a thyroid condition, and up to 60% don’t even know they have it, often because symptoms are dismissed or misdiagnosed.
You might be one of the millions with undiagnosed thyroid issues. In this episode, Dr. Axe sits down with McCall McPherson: licensed PA, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, to reveal what most doctors miss when it comes to thyroid, hormones, and metabolism.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
* Why standard thyroid tests like TSH often miss the full picture
* How hormones like cortisol and estrogen impact thyroid function
* The truth about perimenopause and HRT most women don’t hear
* Whether weight loss meds like Ozempic help—or hurt—thyroid healing
* The first steps to take if you think your thyroid is the problem
If you’ve been told “you’re fine” but still don’t feel like yourself, this episode is for you.
