Postpartum Anxiety or Hormone imbalance?
First off, here are my symptoms:
-anxiety
-fast heartrate/palpitations
-insomnia (at times)
-nausea
-dizziness
-crazy irregular periods
-anxiety is worse during menstrual
-dry skin
-fatigue
I thought it was a thyroid issue so I got labs done. All was normal EXCEPT t3 uptake, total t4, and free thyroxine index. Those were all very high. My endocrinologist suggested I have extra estrogen which is good.
Problem is, I just had a baby 10 months ago and have been experiencing this for 4 months. Should I look into a hormonal problem or is it simply postpartum anxiety and will resolve itself? Thanks!!
