Are you still dragging through the day with that lingering fatigue, brain fog, or stubborn weight gain—even though you're faithfully taking your thyroid meds? Could the missing piece be T3?
In this episode, we dive into the enduring T3 debate: is synthetic levothyroxine (T4) enough, or could adding T3—or going with natural desiccated thyroid (NDT)—be the key to finally feeling like yourself again?
We’ll explore:
How T4-only therapy became the standard—and why it doesn’t always deliver relief
What groundbreaking research reveals about T4 vs. T4+T3 vs. NDT—including why nearly half of patients prefer NDT, and how a significant number experience symptom relief when T3 is included
The science behind hormone conversion—and why not everyone effectively turns T4 into the active T3 their bodies need
Real-world challenges: navigating insurance, finding T3-friendly doctors, and mastering safe dosing timing to avoid overstimulation or sleep interference
Why listen? If you’re managing hypothyroidism and T4 alone isn’t cutting it, this episode gives you the insight—and empowerment—you need to talk options with your provider and reclaim your vitality.

Did you know that a "normal" thyroid lab result might not be optimal for you? In this eye-opening episode, we dive into why feeling your best doesn’t always line up with being “within range.” Drawing on expert insights, we explore:
Why "normal" may fall short: Lab reference ranges are built on averages—not individual well-being. You may feel sluggish or symptomatic even when your numbers appear untouched.
What truly "optimal" levels look like for TSH, Free T3, and Free T4
When “normal” labs don’t line up with symptoms: We unpack why hypothyroid symptoms can persist—fatigue, cold intolerance, weight gain—even when standard labs don’t raise red flags.
Taking the next step toward personalized thyroid health: Learn how opting for a full thyroid panel, working with a care team, and factoring in lifestyle can be the game-changer to consistently feeling well—versus accepting “normal” as good enough.
Whether you've been told you're “normal” and still don’t feel optimal—or you’re supporting someone navigating thyroid health—this episode delivers clarity, empowerment, and actionable strategies.

Natural Desiccated Thyroid (NDT) medications—like Armour Thyroid and NP Thyroid—are derived from pig thyroid glands and are preferred by many hypothyroid patients who haven’t found relief with synthetic options like levothyroxine.
But as of August 6, 2025, the FDA shocked patients, providers and manufacturers, moving a crucial deadline up from 2029 to August 2026, requiring NDT manufacturers to submit costly Biologics License Applications (BLAs) or potentially face a forced market withdrawal. This shift also restricts compounded NDT and likely bars imports—adding new layers of access and affordability concerns for many, especially those on Medicare or paying cash.
Though the FDA’s head Dr. Marty Makary has since pledged on X to “ensure access for all Americans,” the window is narrow, and no manufacturer has yet filed a BLA.
Join us as we unpack what this means, who’s behind these regulatory moves, what patients and advocates are doing about it—and how those of you who rely on NDT can prepare now to protect your treatment options.

What you'll discover in this episode:
The Surprising Link: Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are tied to a higher risk of Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SSNHL).
Types of Hearing Loss: Explore the differences between sensorineural, conductive, and mixed hearing loss—and why some are more common in thyroid patients.
Common Symptoms: From tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, hissing) to trouble hearing in noisy settings or understanding high-pitched voices—know the signs.
Autoimmune Ties: Hashimoto’s increases the risk of autoimmune ear disorders like AIED and Meniere’s disease, which cause tinnitus, vertigo, and hearing loss.
Getting Evaluated: What to expect during hearing tests
Practical Tips: What's the story on earwax?!! And how about Q-Tips?
This episode is a must-listen for anyone living with a thyroid condition, experiencing hearing issues, or simply curious about the intricate connections in our bodies.
