Residents of megacities are often worried about increased fatigue, weakness, drowsiness, decreased attention, anxiety and insomnia. However, such symptoms can be observed not only due to the wrong and intense rhythm of life, but also due to a violation of thyroid hormones, said Maria Khudyakova, an endocrinologist at SM-Clinic, in a conversation with socialbites.ca.
“Problems in the reproductive system such as decreased potency, lack of libido, menstrual irregularities, intestinal disorders such as constipation or diarrhea, dry skin, hair loss may also be caused by hormones not working properly,” the endocrinologist added.

“To understand whether this is really a problem with the thyroid gland or the effect of lifestyle, it is necessary to undergo a thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) screening test,” Khudyakova concluded.
