Stay Off My Operating Table 237: Dr. Amie Hornaman - 95% of Hypothyroidism is Actually Hashimoto’s Disease
Dr. Amie Hornaman to discuss one of the most underdiagnosed and misunderstood health issues affecting millions—especially women over 35. Dr. Amie shares her personal journey from being a misdiagnosed fitness competitor who gained 25 pounds despite extreme dieting and exercise, to becoming a leading thyroid hormone specialist.
Discover why 95% of hypothyroidism is actually Hashimoto's disease, why standard TSH testing fails most patients, and why T4-only medications like Synthroid don't work for the vast majority. Learn about the "forgotten hormone" T2 and its potential as a game-changer for metabolism and weight loss, the critical role of iodine, and what comprehensive thyroid testing should actually include.
Whether you're struggling with unexplained weight gain, crushing fatigue, hair loss, or have been told "everything is normal" despite feeling terrible, this episode provides the roadmap to proper thyroid diagnosis and treatment.
