The thyroid is an extremely important gland in the human body, producing hormones which affect and regulate the behavior of several other bodily systems.  If the thyroid starts under-producing those hormones – called hypothyroidism – this can cause symptoms across the entire body.  Unfortunately, this can also make thyroid problems difficult to detect.

In understanding more about the reasons for why you may feel colder than others, you might first analyze your thyroid and its level of performance. The latest data shows that there’s a significant link between hypothyroidism and perceived body temperature changes, and in this latest post, our experts delve into the latest research and review the findings to help explain the newest links.

In monitoring your general heath, you need to be aware of anything unusual in the way you are feeling on a day- to- day basis.   Troubling symptoms, even if vague should be followed up on with a physician.  If you have concerns about  thyroid-related symptoms, speaking with a specialist such as the team members here at Freeman Endocrinology is the ideal step to take.
