Dr. Louis Esquivel answered

Specializes in Holistic Medicine

See a holistic doc: Get a general medical evaluation from a holistic doctor and request testing of thyroid and other hormones as appropriate for your age and sex. You may also need further nutritional and adrenal testing to identify problems. Also a nutritional program based on your findings may be helpful.
