                       The Treatments

 In conventional medicine perspective
Patients with hypothyroidism are treated by Thyroid hormone therapy with doses depending to the stage and types of the diseases

In patients with overt hypothyroidism defined as low FT4 and elevated TSH or TSH > 10 mU/L a replacement with levothyroxine is clearly indicated. In patients with subclinical hypothyroidism defined as a TSH between 4 and 10 mU/L and normal FT4, the treatment with Levothyroxine depends on the underlying disease and symptoms. Levothyroxine is a prohormone with is activated by deiodination in the organs to triiodothyronine, according to the study by Medizinische Klinik IV der Universität München(52a).

Standard therapy for patients with primary hypothyroidism is replacement with synthetic thyroxine, which undergoes peripheral conversion to triiodothyronine, the active form of thyroid hormone. According to the study by the University College Dublin, in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted from May 2000 to February 2002 at a military treatment facility that serves active duty and retired military personnel and their family members, indicated that compared withlevothyroxine alone, treatment of primary hypothyroidism with combinationlevothyroxine plus liothyronine demonstrated no beneficial changes in body weight, serum lipid levels, hypothyroid symptoms as measured by a HRQL questionnaire, and standard measures of cognitive performance(53). Other in the study to examine the efficacy of combination therapy with levothyroxine and liothyronine in improvement of general health, psychological problems, and metabolic status in primary hypothyroidism, showed that Psychosocial scores, body weight, heart rate, blood pressure, and lipid profile in the two groups remained constant(54).
