✦ What Is Triiodothyronine? ✦

Triiodothyronine is one of the two naturally occurring hormones released by the thyroid, the other being thyroxine (T4). Together, these hormones regulate how the body uses energy, affecting the metabolism, body temperature, and heart rate.

When the thyroid produces too much triiodothyronine, the result is hyperthyroidism, which often causes rapid heartbeat, sudden weight loss, sweating, sleeping difficulties, and tremors. Too little triiodothyronine produced by the thyroid leads to hypothyroidism, which can cause weight gain, excessive fatigue, intolerance to cold, constipation, and hair loss. Clearly, balance is key.

✦ Patients Medical Can Help ✦

Since thyroid disease can emerge from various underlying causes, Patients Medical focuses first on identifying the culprit of a patient's thyroid hormone imbalance. Among the possible conditions are hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, Graves' disease, and Hashimoto's disease. Thyroid nodules or a goiter, which is an enlarged thyroid gland, can also impair the thyroid's ability to properly produce T3 and T4.

One key element of Patients Medical's treatment is Liothyronine, which is a synthetic form of the T3 hormone. This substance can be taken orally or it can be administered intravenously. Since the dosing of Liothyronine is dependent on body weight, age, symptom severity, and previous or current medications, Patients Medical will first offer you an in-depth initial consultation to determine the best treatment method for your particular situation.

Along with Liothyronine, which is the primary conventional medicine approach to bolstering T3 production, Patients Medical can prescribe natural remedies with proven efficacy. You may be prescribed a diet regimen that prioritizes selenium, vitamin B, and probiotics and is low in sugar and gluten. For further support, Patients Medical can include herbal supplements from its curated supplement line, which you can look through here: https://mysupplements.store/collections/thyroid-support
