"Seven Hidden Symptoms of Thyroid Problems" - Jen Krausz
Thyroid problems can be tricky to diagnose because the symptoms are similar to many other health problems. Many Americans have thyroid problems and don’t even know it because the symptoms can be subtle and hard to detect. Here are some hidden symptoms of thyroid problems that may signal that a trip to the doctor for a thyroid test is in order. Many people experience brain fog for a variety of reasons, and one of those reasons could be an underactive thyroid, according to Ashita Gupta, MD, assistant clinical professor of medicine, endocrinology, diabetes and bone disease at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Having more than the normal amount of trouble remembering things or just overall mental fatigue are other related signs that your thyroid may need some attention.
