Thyroid Health After Menopause

Thyroid function can shift during and after menopause due to hormonal changes and ageing. Symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and mood swings often overlap with menopausal changes, making diagnosis challenging.

Helpful Herbs & Supplements

Iodine (from Kelp) – Essential for thyroid hormone synthesis.

Selenium – Supports conversion of T4 to active T3.

Zinc – Helps regulate thyroid hormone activity and immune balance.

Ashwagandha – An adaptogen that supports thyroid and adrenal function.

Tyrosine – An amino acid required for thyroid hormone production.

Disclaimer

Thyroid supplements should only be taken under medical supervision. Request thyroid function tests before self-prescribing iodine or glandular products.
