Can you have hypothyroidism without experiencing weight gain or being overweight?

It is absolutely possible, especially if it is very slight hypothyroidism.

But a lot of the symptoms you describe can also come from things which people do when they are trying to lose weight--e.g. decrease caloric intake, being on a restricted diet.

If you are eating normally (getting sufficient protein and vitamins), then it is possible you have slight hypothyroidism. This is especially likely if you were in the former soviet union in the late 80s.

I have long suspected that I may have hypothyroidism since I feel I have many of the symptoms:

Sluggishness

Increased sensitivity to cold

Constipation (diagnosed with IBS)

I’m sure you are well aware that there’s no shortage of information on the internet, especially when it comes to Hypothyroidism.

The good news is that all of this information helps to bring much needed awareness to Hypothyroidism and the DEVASTATING effects it can have on your life.

But what if I told you that 95% of hypothyroidism sufferers, like yourself, are using treatment options that are actually causing more harm than good… making you more hypothyroid every day?

Why?

Because they are based entirely on misinformation instead of sound and scientific research.

The real question is… How can you protect yourself from this misinformation and from becoming just another one of these 95% of sufferers who are doing it all wrong?

Well, I just found this great hypothyroidism resource which will really help clear up the confusion for you. The following video I’m about to share with you contains a lot of great information on how to naturally overcome hypothyroidism by stopping it directly at the source.

The best part is that it’s actually based on scientific research… Scientific research that I will bet that you have never even seen before.

Have you tried the simple hypothyroid test of keeping a record of your morning and evening temperatures.? -- It is easy to do, and could be a first step in your own efforts to find out if you are hypothyroid. -- Go to www.brodabarnes.org - and read the information there. Or, go to www.drrind.com and download the temperature charts there.

Then go to www.stopthrythyroidmadness.com and read the information there.

The more you know, the more you can accurately present your case to a doctor.

Good Luck!

Definitely! Not everyone gains weight. But your other symptoms do point to hypo. You need tests, but not any test. For example. the TSH test is a huge failure. In my people, it's "normal" even though the person is clearly hypo. So if you do the TSH, INSIST on also having a FREE T3 and FREE T4. If the free T3 is mid-range or lower in the presence of your hypo symptoms, bingo. Here's a page to explain that: http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/recommended-l...

And read through the rest of the website, because it will tell you about desiccated thyroid like Armour, which is FAR better treatment than T4-only medications like Synthroid or Levoxyl. The latter suck and leave most everyone with lingering hypo symptoms which WILL worsen as you age.

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/AhT9d

Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).

1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.

2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.

Thyroid disease is one of the most common health problems we face today. From a practical standpoint, there are many ways to approach this issue. Learn here https://tinyurl.im/aH6xg Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is a very common problem, and there are many reasons for this, including drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water, and eating brominated flour. Chlorine, fluoride, and bromine are all in the same family as iodine, and can displace iodine in your thyroid gland. Secondly, many people simply aren't getting enough iodine in their diet to begin with. The amount you get from iodized salt is just barely enough to prevent you from getting a goiter.

Yes it is possible. I suggest you get your thyroid levels checked through a blood test, that is the only way to diagnose if you have it or not. Good luck!
