Avatar n tn Has your doctor diagnosed post partum thyroiditis (PPT)? Your TPOab is somewhat elevated, which usually indicates PPT. It's considered a variant of Hashimoto's thyroiditis, which is autoimmune thyroid disease and the most prevalent cause of hypo in the developed world. PPT is usually a temporary condition characterized by an initial hyper phase, a brief return to normal and then a hypo phase. Hashi's, except in its very early stages, usually causes hypothyroidism.
Avatar n tn I am at the early stages of PPT (I also have postpartum anxiety) my endocrinologist put me on Tapazole 2 weeks ago. I have a mild soar throat but I believe it's merely the remnants of a cold. However, I am losing an insane amount of hair, above the average hair loss due to postpartum. Is this the combo of thyroid, meds and postpartum... I'm on tapazole 10mg daily dose. Is there something I can do? I had my blood work done on Friday and WBC was normal... does it fluctuate easily?
Avatar m tn You may have postpartum thyroiditis (PPT). PPT is considered a "temporary"/self-resolving thyroiditis. It usually starts with a hyper phase, followed by a return to normal and then a hypo phase. However, many women only experience the hypo or the hyper, not both. TSI (thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin) is the antibody marker for Graves'. If you have that tested, and it's elevated, you'll know you have Graves'.

Avatar f tn I have a 7 month old son and my thyroid is way out of whack. Because of my somewhat recent pregnancy my endo seems to think that I have PPT. I have researched this and PPT goes from hyper to hypo and I thought if this was the case with my sons age I would be in the hypo stage by now....also I have no inflammation which I'm pretty sure would be required for a thyroidITIS diagnosis.
Avatar f tn You could have Hashi's, but it's more likely you have postpartum thyroiditis. PPT is a variant of Hashi's, but many people recover from it on their own. It usually presents as an initial hyper phase, followed by a return to normal and a hypo phase, although some people only experience one of the phases. Your FT4 is only 29% of range, which is low of the 50% target. Many of us found FT4 had to be about 50% before our symptoms were relieved.
Avatar f tn Heat press does help with cramps just not to hot. i had them really bad my first 6 weeks and i found snuggling up with a heat pack and a comfy pillow helped.
Avatar n tn m glad to read that I am not the only one with Thyroid issues! I am the proud mother of a new baby girl who is now 4 months old and I suffer from PPT, I had it with my first child and now I new the signs I acted fast and saw my endo. The problem is that I've been prescribed Tapazole to help me with the hyper stage until hypo sets in, and honestly, I'm really scared to take the medication. The list of side effects seem pretty severe. Is this the best process for me to take.
Avatar f tn Im also 5 weeks and having the same symptoms cramps, also gassy, & the runs (tmi). Its all normal from what I hear.
Avatar f tn Could any one help me to know what is my results means specially 2 things in my ppt: (Pre). (Best) Tlc 7.86. 8.90 Rv. 1.92. .90 Rv/tlc 26.44. 10.
Avatar f tn Can you use heat pads?
Avatar f tn s not unusual to swing back and forth from hypo to hyper, which it sounds like you are doing since you are sometimes intolerant to heat, sometimes to cold, sometimes constipated, sometimes have diarrhea. It can be difficult to see the swings in lab work because they can happen fast (within a day sometimes). Unless you are intolerant to a food, there's no reason to change your diet.
Avatar f tn I was referred to a internist right before Christmas who told me to quit nursing I should get a scan but he felt this was PPT ( Postpartum Thyroiditis ). I said no to weaning and he said I could wait 5 months at which time if I was still Hyper I would have to wean and get the uptake scan to rule out Graves. I was told the only help for me was beta blockers which I could not take while nursing or lots of rest because exerting myself would only exaggerate my symptoms.

Avatar f tn Take a warm bath. That helps with cramps. Also invest in a heating pad.,i had terrible terrible period like cramps for months! Then my hubby got me a heating pad and i love it! It does wonders. Keep a look out though, if you start spotting or they get more bother some you should call your dr or be seen.
Avatar n tn I just got my period like right now and the cramps are already so bad i dont know what to do.
Avatar n tn Been having horrible cramps in the sides and front of my shins, not charley horses in the back, but ones you can really rub out of walk off. They happen overnight, every hour and a half or so, and just have to be patient and let them work themselves out. I've been dealing with this for a month now! I miss sleep. :-( tried all the home remedies. Been scanned for clots twice. Anyone else experiencing these that might have a suggestion on things to try?
572651 tn?1530999357 If you go through the listing on the left side of the page, any of the presentations that are in BLUE have a powerpoint presentation connected. Save the ppt to your computer and then view it normally. again, I wish we had access to the entire presentation and not just the slides, but there is still lots of meaty content here. http://cmsc.omnibooksonline.com/index.
