What Is Thyroid Treatment?
Thyroid treatment at Nava Health is a comprehensive, personalized medical program designed to support individuals with thyroid dysfunction, including hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), and autoimmune thyroid conditions such as Hashimoto’s.
The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped endocrine gland located in the neck, but its impact is massive. Thyroid hormones regulate how nearly every cell in your body produces and uses energy. When thyroid signaling is disrupted, the effects can cascade throughout the body, leading to fatigue, weight changes, mood disturbances, cardiovascular strain, and metabolic dysfunction.
Conventional care often relies on a limited thyroid screen, frequently using TSH alone. If results fall within a broad “normal” range, symptoms may be dismissed. At Nava Health Fairfax, we go further. Our advanced thyroid testing includes TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3, and thyroid antibody panels, giving us a complete picture of hormone production, conversion, and immune involvement. This data-driven approach allows us to create precise, individualized treatment strategies.

Who Can Benefit from Thyroid Treatment
Thyroid care at Nava Health Fairfax supports individuals with diagnosed thyroid disorders and those experiencing symptoms despite “normal” lab results.
Individuals With Persistent Fatigue
Chronic exhaustion, even after adequate sleep, often signals impaired thyroid hormone activity. Optimizing thyroid function helps restore cellular energy production, improving stamina, motivation, and daily performance.
People Experiencing Brain Fog or Mood Changes
Thyroid hormones directly affect neurotransmitter balance. When levels are suboptimal, patients may experience anxiety, depression, forgetfulness, or poor focus that improves with targeted thyroid care.
Patients With Autoimmune Thyroid Conditions
For those with Hashimoto’s or elevated thyroid antibodies, proactive care can help reduce immune-driven inflammation, preserve thyroid tissue, and slow disease progression.
Those Struggling With Weight Loss Resistance
A sluggish thyroid lowers metabolic rate, making fat loss difficult despite healthy habits. Proper thyroid optimization can help normalize metabolism and support sustainable weight management.
Women With Hormonal or Cycle Irregularities
Thyroid imbalance frequently disrupts menstrual cycles, ovulation, and fertility. Supporting thyroid health is often foundational to restoring reproductive hormone balance.
Individuals With Hair, Skin, or Nail Changes
Dry skin, hair thinning, brittle nails, and eyebrow loss are classic signs of hypothyroidism. Correcting thyroid function improves circulation and nutrient delivery to these tissues.
What Thyroid Treatment Involves
Thyroid conditions vary widely depending on whether the gland is underactive, overactive, or affected by autoimmune activity. At Nava Health Fairfax, treatment is tailored accordingly.
- Holistic Diagnostic Evaluation: We assess thyroid hormone production, conversion efficiency, antibody activity, nutrient status, adrenal function, and inflammation to identify the true drivers of dysfunction.
- Personalized Treatment Strategies: Care plans may include targeted hormone support, functional medicine protocols, nutrition optimization, stress regulation, and immune-modulating therapies when appropriate.
- Integrative & Conventional Balance: While conventional medicine often focuses solely on hormone replacement, Nava Health combines evidence-based medical care with integrative strategies to address root causes and promote long-term stability.
- Ongoing Monitoring & Adjustments: Because thyroid function evolves with stress, age, nutrition, and immune activity, we continuously monitor markers and refine your plan to maintain symptom relief and metabolic health.
Symptoms & Health Effects of Thyroid Dysfunction
Thyroid imbalance can disrupt nearly every system in the body.
Common Hypothyroidism Symptoms
Fatigue, weight gain, cold sensitivity, dry skin, hair loss, constipation, depression, brain fog, and slowed metabolism.
Common Hyperthyroidism Symptoms
Unintended weight loss, rapid heart rate, heat intolerance, anxiety, tremors, frequent bowel movements, muscle weakness, and fatigue.
Systemic Health Effects
Untreated thyroid dysfunction can increase cardiovascular risk, disrupt cholesterol balance, impair immune regulation, affect bone health, and contribute to long-term metabolic disease.

Frequently Asked Questions
TSH reflects brain signaling, not actual thyroid hormone activity. Stress, inflammation, and poor conversion can cause symptoms even when TSH appears normal.
Yes. Our physicians tailor treatment based on whether your thyroid is underactive, overactive, or affected by autoimmune activity.
Many patients notice improved energy and clarity within 4–6 weeks. Full metabolic and symptom improvement may take several months.
Yes. Thyroid health changes over time, which is why ongoing monitoring and plan adjustments are essential for long-term success.
Absolutely. We focus on reducing immune triggers, inflammation, and antibody activity while preserving thyroid function.
