107. Postpartum Thyroiditis, IBS, and Other Blanket Diagnoses
Postpartum thyroiditis...no question there’s an issue with your thyroid just like IBS is an issue with your gut...but if anyone spent any amount of time looking at the whole picture they would see that PREGNANCY is a stress and turned on that autoimmune switch. Can we please stop using blanket diagnoses with people and dig a little bit deeper for the cause or is insurance not giving doctors more than 5 minutes with you...so we slap on a diagnosis to make you happy and send you on your way. Yes I’m snarky about this! THIS is why I love functional medicine. We spend TIME with you rather than pat you on the back and send you on your way with a pill. If you are looking for a practitioner who knows the thyroid and is willing to spend time with you, listen to you, and hold your hand throughout your healing journey, just book a free discovery call in the link below.
