The Thyroidless Life

The Thyroidless Life Podcast with Dr. Rebecca Warren is focused on the clinical experience, personal experience, and research on what it looks like to actually get well after having your thyroid removed or being diagnosed with a thyroid disorder. Dr. Rebecca had her thyroid removed when she was just 19 years old, and ended up suffering unnecessarily with hormone issues that left her hopeless. She ended up drawing a line in the sand and took back her health. And from there she decided to take all the things she learned over a decade and a half, and began to teach thousands of women worldwide about thyroid and hormone health. Look at this podcast as a personal walk with Dr. Rebecca of all the things she wish someone had told her when she was 19 and everything she wishes every woman knew.

    In this eye-opening episode, we tackle the controversial topic of thyroid medication and its alleged link to osteoporosis and osteopenia.
