Natural Thyroid Management services  Mountain View, CA

Natural Thyroid Management

The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck below the cartilage known as Adam’s apple. As part of the endocrine system, the thyroid produces two main hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These two hormones influence every single cell in your body. From how your body metabolizes fats and carbohydrates, to temperature regulation and heart rate, to the production of protein - thyroid hormones are center stage.

Two primary problems can occur with your thyroid - overproduction of thyroid hormones called hyperthyroidism, including Graves’ disease; and, underproduction of thyroid hormones called hypothyroidism, including Hashimoto’s disease. In most cases, thyroid problems can be well-managed when properly diagnosed and treated.

Men’s Health

At Lawrence A. Epstein M.D., we provide comprehensive men’s health services while making you feel at ease and comfortable with your body and any health concerns you may have.

What are the biggest concerns regarding men’s health?
As a group, men tend to avoid discussing their health or any concerns they have with anyone, including their doctors. However, putting off physical exams and preventive screens can allow underlying conditions to progress if left untreated. As men age, there are several common conditions that men are at higher risk of developing and they include:

  • Colon cancer screenings
  • Diabetes
  • Heart disease
  • Hypertension (high blood pressure)
  • Liver disease
  • Low testosterone disorders
  • Prostate cancer
  • Stroke

Though some conditions increase risk with age, it is important to receive regular medical care regardless of how old you are.
