Underactive thyroid and Peri menopause

Hi,

I have started perimenopause and having symptons e.g heat palpatations (tests done but no other medical issues found) mood swings, aches and pains etc… and I am trying to find solutions to help.

Have started taking viticulture supplements but it seems really confusing as to which ones are safe to use if you have thyroid issues.

Are there any I can take that won’t compromise the thyroxine?

Regarding peri menopause , it may be useful to have a look at Dr Louise Newson’s free Balance App, as I find it really useful for comparing HRT medications & having up to date research articles. There is also an ability to post questions.

Can you list the ingredients of the viticulture supplement; I’ve not heard of them.

May I ask how you know you are in perimenopause?

check ferritin levels. Getting my ferritin levels from 28 to over 100 has helped with palpitations
