Thyroid Symptoms
The most common symptoms of an impaired thyroid gland are extreme fatigue, insomnia, intermittent or constant extremes of feeling cold and numbness, brain fog, depression, anxiety, constipation, hair thinning and loss, weight gain, general aches and pains, and goiter.
Other symptoms include diabetes, the inability to conceive, infertility, menstrual upsets (from irregularity to debilitating pain), menopausal symptoms, heart palpitations, chest pain, gout, edema, kidney area pain in the mid to lower back, kidney and bladder infection, viral infection, rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune disease, and cancer.
Each of these symptoms can be an illness on its own and, left unchecked, each has the potential of becoming problematic.
