Hi All,
So for the past few years, I have had the sparse 1/4 eyebrows. In fact, my eye doctor said it could be thyroid related. Add in thy going through menopause, and the other fun symptoms like hot flashes, belly fat/flab (and I work out)low libidos, dryness. I figured it was all due to going through the change, but recently read it could be hypothyroidism..or both? My GP sent me to an endocrinologist a couple of years ago due to some levels she didn't like in my blood work, but I never went back.
Anyway, I take progesterone cream , vitamin D, fish oil, and recently added adaptogens from Premier Research Labs.; however, I still have all of the above.
I recently read that Maca powder could help, so bought it and noticed a decrease in the flashes by day two. Then I read two conflicting stories: it helps reduce the belly fat and aids in weight loss vs. it makes you gain weight..and a lot.
Any feedback, advice, or success stories, please let me know.
I was also toying with adding selenium and Iodine drops...
Again, any words of wisdom are appreciated.
