Post Childbirth
Things instantly change after birth - we are taught to expect that. But the arrival of baby may leave you feeling out-of-control emotionally, exhausted, and mourning for your former life.
Some chronic illnesses in new mothers go untreated, because symptoms are similar to those of sleep deprivation. "Well, you just had a baby" can answer for a lot of problems.
Are you feeling tired, depressed & have trouble concentrating? Are you really struggling more than other new mothers with debilitating fatigue, hair loss, and depression? If your answer is Yes, then you may be suffering from a thyroid imbalance.
Postpartum thyroiditis is a condition in which the thyroid becomes inflamed after delivery, due to antibodies. It typically follows a pattern: at first, you become hyperthyroid, and might feel breathless, nervous, mentally confused, have unexplained weight loss, or trouble sleeping.
In the second phase, symptoms might be depression, fatigue, weight gain or difficulty losing weight.
Once you've had an episode of postpartum thyroid problems, you are much more likely to later develop a thyroid problem during a period of stress, subsequent pregnancy, or during menopause.
But thankfully there's a solution
If you have postpartum thyroiditis or think you do, take heart in realizing there are many things you can do naturally to improve your health.
