Hi irenelula

You can find information about thyroid disorders at ThyroidUK's main website thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/about_...

Have you been diagnosed with an overactive thyroid and if so what is your GP doing about it?

I don't think there is a natural treatment for an overactive thyroid but these links may be of interest

Welcome to the forum, Irenelula.

Can you post your recent thyroid results and ranges (figures in brackets after results)?

As far as I'm aware there is no natural treatment for hyperthyroidism and treatment is anti-thyroid drugs. Your GP should refer you to endocrinology for managment but can start you on Carbimazole while you are waiting for an appointment. If your heart is racing Beta Blockers can be prescribed as long as you aren't asthmatic.

Use the webform below to request a list of member recommended doctors and practitioners.

Okubadejo,

If you are having hyperthyroid symptoms thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/about_... you should see your GP and have a thyroid function test. TSH will usually be suppressed <0.03.
