Are there natural nonprescription alternatives to supplement hormone for thyroidectomy or thyroid surgery?

Question

I had a full thyroidectomy and am now taking levothyroxine hormone supplement. During the first few months after my surgery while my level of hormone was still being regulated I was doing well, sleeping well and was in a good mood. I had to keep having my level increased and when I got up to 2.0 strength I felt like I was wide awake in the middle of the night and couldn’t get to sleep until extremely late. I also became much more irritable as if I had a hormonal imbalance. This time after my blood test my doctor said my level was right, but I feel so much worse. I was wondering if there was something I could do, like go to a lower level and then try to do something in my diet to make up the difference. I also hear that some people respond better to the armour thyroid medicine? Does anyone know anything about these things? Thank you so much.

Answer 2

Natural Thyroid Hormone Replacement

Answer 3

No one in these forums seems to be able to address the question directly. We are NOT asking if there is a natural alternative to supplement an under/over active thyroid. We are talking about after having the thyroid COMPLETELY removed! At this point there is NO PRODUCTION of natural T3 or T4 hormone. Without this hormone, our metabolisms eventually shut down and we die. It's that simple. Worst estimates are as soon as 2 months. The question is; is there a food or organic source to replace the medication? The question is often asked because of concerns of medicine availability in a grid down, or some kind of situation where normal supply channels are no longer available.

Natural Thyroid Replacement

Answer 5

After your thyroid is removed you need to take hormones to replace what it produces. Without it you would eventually die.

The blood test measure to see if you are in the normal range, your normal may be slightly off from the average. Many doctors measure your TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone produced by the pituitary), if it is too low it may fyou are hyperthyroid. I have the same problem but my doctors are doing it on purpose after having cancer. Find out what your blood test results are. The normal range for TSH is 0.3 to 3.0. If you feel bad at 1.0 for example, ask your doctor is he will allow your TSH to be 2.0, so you can see how you feel. He will also test your T4 and T3 in your blood, to see if the hormones are at the right value.

Armor Thyroid medicine is a natural thyroid hormone from pig's that contains both T4 and T3 hormones. Most likely your medication is a synthetic T4 hormone. A healthy body can convert T4 to T3, but many people feel better taking T3 hormone with T4.

I would find out more about your blood test results, and have the doctor slightly lower your dose to see how you feel and see if you are still in the normal range.

Answer 6

i take the amour thyroid and i take an iodine potassium supplement and that seems to work pretty well. my doctor also suggested that i eat a lot of Celtic sea salt because of all of the natural minerals in it. talk to your doctor and see if you could try it. personally, i would tell your doctor what your symptoms are and see what you can do together to help fix your problem. talk to the doc first before you start taking any medications.

Being a responsible father of three is a big job itself. Are you worry some over something deep down that you normally dont talk about ? Something is taking your energy, or you're losing it to something. You are not content with something in your life, or are concerned of something. You need happiness to boost your energy. Hope you feel well soon ! :)) Peace and blessings...
