231 | Hormone Imbalance or Thyroid? How to Tell What's Going On

What if your thyroid looks "normal" on blood work—but you still feel tired, cold, foggy, constipated, or frustrated that you can't lose weight? In this episode, I'm joined by Jessica Myers, Chief Experience Officer at Kiaora, for a conversation about thyroid health, midlife hormone imbalance, and why the most common thyroid test may not reveal the complete picture. We discuss what your thyroid on blood work can—and cannot—tell you, including the roles of TSH, Free T4, Free T3, Reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies. Jessica also explains why thyroid symptoms can be difficult to separate from perimenopause and menopause, and what women can ask their providers to include in a more complete thyroid test. You'll also hear our personal experiences with thyroid treatment, why finding the right support can take time, and how under-fueling or drastically cutting healthy carbohydrates may affect thyroid function. If you're tired of guessing what is keeping you stuck and you're ready to get rid of stubborn belly fat while building a fit, strong body, join me inside the Belly Fat Breakthrough Tribe. We'll help you turn this information into simple, sustainable action. Medical note: This article is educational and is not a substitute for individualized medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
