Thyroid Health

Understand your thyroid health with comprehensive testing and personalized wellness care
Thyroid Health

Your thyroid plays an important role in metabolism, energy, body temperature and many other functions throughout the body. When thyroid function changes, symptoms can be broad and may overlap with other hormonal, nutritional or wellness concerns.

Fatigue, changes in weight, difficulty concentrating, changes in hair or skin and sensitivity to temperature are just some of the concerns that may lead patients to ask about their thyroid. At Confident Med Spa, we take a broader approach through Comprehensive Labs and Functional Wellness to better understand your symptoms and determine appropriate next steps.

Wellness care is available in New Hampshire and Maine, including our Windham and South Portland locations, with Virtual Wellness available for eligible patients throughout both states.

Common Symptoms

Concerns that may prompt a thyroid evaluation include persistent fatigue, unexplained changes in weight, difficulty concentrating, brain fog, sensitivity to heat or cold, changes in hair or skin, changes in mood, sleep concerns and changes in energy or metabolism. Because these symptoms can have many causes, proper evaluation is important.

Our Approach

Thyroid symptoms can overlap with hormonal, nutritional and other health concerns, which is why our approach starts with your individual symptoms, health history and appropriate lab testing rather than symptoms alone. Comprehensive Labs can provide information about thyroid function and other relevant health markers. Your provider can review those results alongside how you are feeling to identify areas that may warrant additional attention. Through Functional Wellness, your care plan can also consider other factors that may be contributing to your symptoms. When appropriate, your provider may recommend additional evaluation, treatment or referral based on your individual results and medical needs.

Recommended Treatments

Our providers create personalized treatment plans based on your specific needs. Common treatment options include:

Frequently Asked Questions

What are common signs of a thyroid problem?

Changes in thyroid function may be associated with symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, temperature sensitivity, difficulty concentrating and changes in hair, skin, mood or energy. These symptoms can also have other causes, so lab testing and medical evaluation are important.

Can thyroid problems cause low energy?

Changes in thyroid function can be associated with fatigue and low energy. However, fatigue can have many potential causes, so your provider may evaluate thyroid markers alongside other relevant health factors.

Can thyroid function affect weight?

Thyroid hormones play a role in metabolism, so changes in thyroid function can sometimes affect weight. Weight changes alone do not indicate a thyroid condition, and appropriate testing can help determine whether thyroid function may be contributing.

How is thyroid function evaluated?

Thyroid function is evaluated through your symptoms, health history and appropriate laboratory testing. Your provider can determine which thyroid and related health markers should be evaluated based on your individual needs.

Can I discuss thyroid concerns through Telehealth?

Yes. Eligible patients in New Hampshire and Maine can use Virtual Wellness to discuss symptoms, lab results and wellness concerns with a provider. In-person testing or additional medical evaluation may still be recommended when appropriate.
