Normal TSH but still tired, moody, or gaining weight? It could be Hashimoto’s.”

Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis is the most common cause of hypothyroidism in women — and it’s often missed because routine tests only check TSH.

This is not just a thyroid issue. It’s an autoimmune condition where your own immune system attacks your thyroid over time.

🔹 Women are 5–10x more likely to develop it 

 Symptoms may flare with stress, pregnancy, post-COVID, or even certain foods 🔹 Classic signs include: – Fatigue despite 8 hours of sleep – Hair fall and brittle nails – Mood swings or anxiety – Irregular periods – Cold hands and feet

At Dr. Tanvi’s Clinic, we go beyond basic tests. We check TPO & Tg antibodies, reverse T3, and inflammation markers to find the real root cause.

✅ Book a consultation if your thyroid reports look “normal” but your body tells a different story.

Thyroid & Weight Gain – Why It’s Not Just About Calories

Struggling with weight gain even though you're eating clean and exercising?

It might not be your willpower — it could be your thyroid. 

Low thyroid function (hypothyroidism) slows down:

Metabolism 

Fat burning

Detoxification

Digestion

Even with a calorie deficit, your body may store fat instead of burning it.

Especially if your T3 hormone is low or you have high reverse T3.

At Dr Tanvi Mayur Patel, we don’t just count calories — we uncover root causes:

Functional thyroid lab testing

Hormone balance plans

Metabolic reset protocols

💉 Weight Loss Injections – My Honest Opinion.

The number of inquiries we get at the clinic for these new weight loss drugs is honestly…overwhelming, scary and surprising

I’m not in favour of using medications to lose weight as i believe lifestyle modification is most important pillar for health.

But that doesn't mean I don't use them.

Do I prescribe them? Yes.
Do I administer them? Yes.
Is it for everyone?
No
It is only in very specific cases:

🔹 Type 2 diabetics with obesity
🔹 Patients who needs to drop weight fast
🔹 A small group with true metabolic resistance to weight loss
🔹 And the biggest group — those who started these injections on their own and now need help to stop!

⚠️ Important:
✔️ Choosing the right patient is critical
✔️ Choosing the right GLP-1 analogue matters to reduce side effects
✔️ These injections must be paired with proper diet + exercise
✔️ You NEED a weaning off strategy — you can’t be on them forever!

So please — Don’t self-prescribe.

Talk to a doctor who can guide you the right way.

Yes, they can give you fast results.
But if taken wrong — they can mess up your gut, hormones, and mindset around food.

📣 Stay informed. Stay safe.

Is this you?

I wanted to chat about sleep complaints with thyroid
issues.

Do you:

Struggle to fall asleep? (Feeling 'tired but wired')
Struggle to stay asleep?
Wake up at 3am and can't get back to sleep?
Nake up feeling unrefreshed or 'more tired'?
Experience thyroid symptoms keeping you awake
such as muscle cramps and aches and pains?
Have sleep apnea Or night sweats?

You're not alone.
And there ARE some things you can do about it

Look at:

Adrenal issues (high cortisol is a biggie)
Low Free T3/T4, or high thyroid antibodies
Menopause and peri-menopause
Unbalanced blood sugar
Too much caffeine consumption
Low Vit levels - iron, B12, D etc.
A magnesium citrate supplement
Ensuring you exercise everyday
Your sleep hygiene and bedtime routine
Removing daytime naps if they're affecting nighttime
sleep

Do you experience any of the sleep issues mentioned
here? Let me know.

Did you know?

Insufficient chewing can have surprising effects on your health. If your food, such as meat, chicken, fish,
fruits, and vegetables, isn't chewed wellenough to become nearly liquid before swalowing, your body
absorbs fewer essential amino acids. The result? Sagging skin, weakened muscles, and inefficient
digestion.

Proper chewing (ideally 35 times per bite) also stimulates gastric acid production, which plays a vital role in
protein digestion and breaking them down into amino acids. Signs like bloating in the upper stomach or
foul-smelling gas might indicate that you're not chewing enough.
