                        <description>An estimated 50 million Americans suffer from thyroid disease. Most are women, and the majority are undiagnosed and improperly treated. Thyroid problems is the overlooked, underdiagnosed cause of many hormonal problems, including early puberty, PMS, low sex drive, infertility, recurrent miscarriage, pregnancy difficulties, post-partum depression, breastfeeding problems, and even menopausal symptoms. &quot;The Thyroid Hormone Breakthrough: Overcoming Sexual and Hormonal Problems at Every Age,&quot; offers practical advice on how thyroid diagnosis and treatment can help women avoid unneeded, costly and invasive treatments. &quot;Thyroid Hormone Breakthrough&quot; is by New York Times bestselling author Mary Shomon, America&#039;s leading thyroid patient advocate.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Kensington, MD (PRWEB) November 7, 2006 -- Millions of American women needlessly suffer from low sex drive, debilitating menstrual periods, and months or years of menopause symptoms. Hundreds of thousands of women are spending as much as $15,000 a cycle for unnecessary fertility treatments. Mothers around the nation are struggling with a difficult pregnancy, followed by postpartum depression, breastfeeding problems and weight gain, with nothing but antidepressants and Mommy and Me workout videos to help them through. And, in recent news, we&#039;re hearing that girls as young as four years old are starting puberty. 



Now, a new book from the nation&#039;s leading thyroid patient advocate and New York Times bestselling author, Mary Shomon, can help women identify whether a thyroid problem may actually be the cause of their hormonal symptoms. &quot;The Thyroid Hormone Breakthrough: Overcoming Sexual and Hormonal Problems at Every Age&quot; (HarperCollins) is a practical handbook for women of all ages, offering step-by-step guidance on how to differentiate thyroid symptoms from other hormonal problems. Then, the book arms women with the knowledge and practical tools they need to find the right practitioner, get properly diagnosed, and effectively relieve conditions and symptoms with approaches chosen from among the best conventional and holistic therapies.

An estimated 50 million Americans suffer from thyroid problems -- the vast majority of sufferers are women, and surpassingly, most are undiagnosed. With diagnosis and effective treatment, many chronic hormonal problems can be dramatically improved -- without  invasive, costly or side-effect-laden treatments. And some women will find that with proper thyroid treatment, their other hormonal symptoms disappear entirely, while the women completely avoid unnecessary drugs, invasive treatments, costly procedures and even surgery. 

&quot;Why isn&#039;t a thyroid test the first thing doctors do?&quot; says author Mary Shomon. &quot;Half of the women in America have a low sex drive. A million women each year are receiving infertility treatments. We have more than 600,000 hysterectomies a year. Minimizing menopause symptoms is a billion dollar business. But low libido, infertility, irregular bleeding and menopause problems are all common symptoms of a thyroid problem. To me, it&#039;s a disgrace that women are being sent for expensive infertility treatment, given questionable hormone treatments, or even told to have a uterus removed -- and NO one has even checked the thyroid gland for problems first, much less offered effective treatment!&quot; 

Shomon&#039;s book provides practical, hands-on advice to help women harness the power of proper thyroid function to resolve:

*  Early or late puberty
*  PMS, and irregular, heavy or painful periods
*  Low sex drive
*  Infertility and recurrent miscarriage
*  Severe morning sickness
*  Post-partum depression and weight gain
*  Difficulty breastfeeding, low milk supply
*  Perimenopause and menopause symptoms

&quot;The Thyroid Hormone Breakthrough&quot; features a detailed Risks and Symptoms Checklist to help pinpoint thyroid and hormonal issues, along with thyroid treatment and hormone balancing-solutions for better health. A full range of treatment options are explored, ranging from conventional prescription treatments, to bioidentical hormones, to supplements, to mind-body approaches. The detailed Resources section provides a wealth of information on experts, web sites, and other support. A special section teaches women how to chart their menstrual and fertility cycle, and includes charting tools. Readers will come away empowered with the...
