THYROID HEALTH

The thyroid, a major endocrine gland in the neck, helps control many of the body’s most important functions through the release of thyroid hormones. These hormones control many of your body’s core functions including metabolism, appetite, heart rate, body temperature, energy, growth and development. If your thyroid becomes overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underactive (hypothyroidism), you may experience a range of health issues.

Thyroid hormone deficiency

Thyroid hormone deficiency has many symptoms including:

  • depression
  • dry skin
  • hair thinning
  • irregular period or heavier periods
  • low energy levels or feeling fatigued
  • muscle aches and joint stiffness
  • muscle weakness
  • sensitivity to cold
  • unexplained weight gain

Treatment for thyroid health

Your health practitioner will usually conduct a thyroid function test to determine how your thyroid is functioning. If thyroid dysfunction is present, our compounding pharmacists will work with you and your physician to customise your medications.

For treatments requiring a prescription, we compound natural thyroid hormone in the form of levothyroxine (T4) and liothyronine (T3).

​Your prescription can be tailor compounded into capsule form in both immediate release and controlled-release formulations, individually or in combination. At Caringbah Compounding Pharmacy, our pharmacists work with your doctor to tailor the dosage to suit your exact needs.
