Guest guest Posted April 20, 2004 Report Posted April 20, 2004 HI ... A Half of tsp. of Shatavari twice a day will help. Make sure you stay away form meat with hormones. If you believe that your thyroid is working slow you can take 1000 mg of kelp twice a day also..Hope this is help .... Noel... sunseril [sunseril] Tuesday, April 20, 2004 4:28 PM ayurveda <ayurveda> I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism.... I have no familyhistory of thyroid disorders. I was on birth control pills for 10 years, without stop. I stopped using the birth control pills five months ago and have not taken one pill since. Two months ago, (3 months after stopping the pills) I noticed that my hair was falling out. I also became ill with a stomach virus and threw up quite a bit for two weeks. Concerned about my hair, I went in for blood tests and they said my thyroid levels were too low and prescribed thyroid medicine. I have no other symptoms of hypothyroidism - my energy levels are fine. I do have some problems with constipation, but I have had this my whole life (as does my family), though I have been very regular for the past few months. I believe the birth control pills, or more accurately, the sudden stopping of using the birth control pills had a strong effect on the overall hormones in my body. Can you recommend any natural ayurvedic treatments for this condition? Thank you. Quote
