In this episode, Dr Chandrika discusses with host Sowjanya what happens to the human body when there are lower levels of the Thyroid hormone. When the human body experiences lower levels of thyroid hormone, a condition known as hypothyroidism occurs. This arises when the thyroid gland fails to produce sufficient thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The body's metabolism slows down, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, cold sensitivity, dry skin, hair loss, and muscle weakness. Additionally, individuals may experience mood changes, including depression. Hypothyroidism can also lead to complications like goiter, heart problems, and infertility. It's crucial to seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment, typically involving thyroid hormone replacement therapy, to restore optimal thyroid levels and alleviate symptoms.
