Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can affect the health of the bones, which is yet another reason why it's crucial to balance the thyroid hormones. While I’m not a big fan of radiation exposure from scanning, there is a time and place where I believe the benefits outweigh the risks.
Today, I’m sharing why DEXA scans are done and when I consider them worth it. In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- How hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can affect bone health
- The importance of balancing thyroid hormones to maintain bone density and quality
- Understanding DEXA scans and their significance in assessing bone density
- Blood tests and markers for bone health
- When to consider getting a bone density test
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
