underactive thyroid?

Question

I just started taking a herb to treat my underactive thyroid. Does anyone else have this same problem? What diet did you use to lose the extra weight?

Answer 1

hypothyroidism rarely responds to homeopathic treatment such as herbals. If it works for you great, but be sure to have your thyroid levels drawn to see if it is working. If not you may in fact need prescription medications.
As for the extra weight, until you get the thyroid under control and functioning properly, the weight isn't going anywhere, first things first, deal with the thyroid, get normal levels and then the weight will come off nicely with just reducing your calories.
