Are Thyroid Conditions Often Undiagnosed?

Thyroid conditions are often misdiagnosed or under diagnosed because of two reasons. One there's a big difference between the optimal range for blood work, and what's considered normal you may still have the symptom for hyperthyroidism and fall in normal, which means you will not be treated properly.

The other things that's important is that we have to think of the impact of all the hormones on the thyroid hormone. For instance if you have too much estrogen or too much cortesol, this can suppress the activity of the thyroid hormone in your body and result in many of the symptoms.
