Are you currently taking thyroid medication? Have you ever wondered about trying to get off of your thyroid medication? You were probably told that you have to take it for the rest of your life, right?
What if I told you that that may not be the case? Well, it's true. There are a lot of thyroid patients who are taking prescription thyroid medications who ultimately want to stop taking them if at all possible. And it turns out that there may be a path for certain people.
But please read this disclaimer before you attempt it:
Do NOT attempt to get off of your thyroid medication without physician supervision. There are some conditions which make getting off of thyroid medication impossible. These conditions include complete removal of the thyroid gland, complete destruction of the thyroid gland from radioactive iodine, and complete destruction of the thyroid gland from end-stage Hashimoto's thyroiditis. If you have any of these conditions then you MUST take thyroid medication forever.
But what about other thyroid patients? There may be a way for you to potentially get off of your thyroid medication or potentially lower the dose that you are taking.
Getting off of thyroid medication involves treating the root cause of your thyroid condition and fixing that problem. If you can do this then you may be able to lower your dose.
Watch this video for more information on how to do exactly that.
