Thyroid gland
The thyroid produces two hormones:
Thyroxine or T4 and the
Triiodothyronine or T3
they regulate the metabolism rate
they affect growth,
regulation of oxygen consumption
Thermal regulation
The thyroid also secretes a
hormone called
calcitonin, which decreases the
calcium and phosphorus levels in the
blood and inhibit reabsorption
that is to say of these ions.

Causes:
Iodine deficient diet (these are rare cases,
since our diet is rich in iodine)
Increase of stimulating hormone of the

increase in size.
Multinodular goiter can trigger cancer.
The assumption of malignancy in gland enlargement is usually
reason for its removal.

Low levels of thyroid hormone (TSH), as a result of a

Symptomatology
•Fatigue
•Mental depression
•Slowness
•Feeling of cold

•Dryness of the skin and hair
•Lack of libido
•Menstrual irregularity
The hormones T3 and T4 are fundamental both
for general or basal metabolism, any
deficiency in these hormones is evident before
all due to a feeling of 'cellular fatigue'

Hashimoto's thyroiditis
Signs and tests
The laboratory tests to determine the functioning
of the thyroid include:
T4 free exam (low)
Serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (high)
T3 (low or normal)
Antithyroid autoantibodies: Ab-Anti peroxidase and Ab-antithyroglobulin
Conventional treatment
Thyroid hormone replacement.
Levothyroxine, (L-thyroxine), synthetic pharmaceutical form
It must be provided for life.
Mycotherapy in thyroid dysfunctions
Autoimmune thyroid dysfunctions:
Hashimoto's thyroiditis (Hypothyroidism)
Graves-Basedow disease (Hyperthyroidism)
Through Mycotherapy, in both cases:
Exacerbated response modulation by the immune system
against autoantigens:
EGB: Ab-TSH. We managed to stop it this way.
destruction of thyroid secretory cells.
THs: Ab-thyroglobulin; Ab-peroxidase. We favor the
synthesis and secretion into the bloodstream of T3 and T4
The modulation of the immune system in both cases results in a
palliative effect of the hormonal imbalance that this entails
