Episode Description:
Exhausted no matter how much you sleep? Struggling with brain fog, stubborn weight, thinning hair, or mood swings; only to hear your doctor say, “Everything looks normal”?
You’re not alone. Millions of people are being dismissed because the medical system is wired to miss what’s really happening. Lab ranges are too broad. Subtle red flags get ignored. And for women especially, symptoms are too often brushed off as stress, hormones, or aging.
This week on Heal Thy Self, Dr. G sits down with McCall McPherson, nationally recognized clinician and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, to expose the hidden epidemic of undiagnosed thyroid dysfunction.
You’ll learn why standard medicine misses it, the early signs you need to catch (like thinning eyebrows, high cholesterol, and even feeling cold all the time), and how Hashimoto’s remission is possible when you address the root causes.
We also dive into why “get off your meds” promises are false hope, how trendy hacks like cold plunges can backfire, and the overlooked emotional side of thyroid health: from repression to losing your voice.
In this episode you’ll discover:
• Why thyroid dysfunction often goes undiagnosed for years
• The flaws in “normal” lab ranges that keep patients suffering
• Overlooked symptoms that point to hidden thyroid issues
• Why women are disproportionately dismissed and gaslit by medicine
• How Hashimoto’s remission is possible with the right approach
• The danger of chasing “get off meds” promises
• When popular wellness trends, like cold plunges, can make things worse
• The emotional link between thyroid health, repression, and using your voice
If you’ve ever felt unheard or stuck with symptoms no one can explain, this conversation will finally connect the dots, and give you a new path forward.
