Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
If you have hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, toxic multinodular goiter, etc.) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis and are looking to do everything to save your thyroid gland, then the Save My Thyroid podcast is for you! Dr. Eric Osansky DC, IFMCP is the host, as he personally was diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to get into remission taking a natural approach. He created this podcast to help others with hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's save their thyroid and regain their health. If you have hyperthyroidism then pretty much all of the episodes will benefit you, and if you have Hashimoto's you'll benefit from most of the guest expert episodes, as well as some of the "solo" episodes. The reason there is more of a focus on hyperthyroidism is because all of the other thyroid-related podcasts focus mostly on hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's, and since Dr. Eric personally dealt with Graves' disease he wanted this podcast to focus more on hyperthyroidism, although it will still offer plenty of value to those with hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's. Dr. Eric Osansky lives in Matthews NC with his wife, 2 daughters, 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs! He has been a practitioner for 20+ years, and has focused on helping people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions since 2009.

The Thyroid-Estrogen Connection

In this episode, Dr. Eric Osansky explores the complex relationship between estrogen and thyroid health. While estrogen is often associated with reproductive health, it also plays an important role in thyroid hormone activity, immune function, metabolism, and overall hormonal balance. Dr. Eric explains how estrogen can influence thyroid hormone availability through thyroid-binding globulin (TBG), why both high and low estrogen levels can create problems, and how hormonal imbalances may contribute to thyroid symptoms in women with Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Dr. Eric also discusses estrogen dominance, progesterone balance, and the connection between estrogen, thyroid autoimmunity, and life stages such as puberty, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause. He reviews the important role of gut health—particularly the estrobolome and beta-glucuronidase—in estrogen metabolism, along with the impact of chronic stress, xenoestrogens, environmental toxins, liver function, and detoxification. In addition, he explains the pros and cons of various hormone testing methods, including blood testing and the DUTCH test, while highlighting nutrients and supplements that may support healthy estrogen metabolism when appropriate.
The episode concludes with practical recommendations for supporting both thyroid and estrogen balance through nutrition, stress management, gut health, and personalized testing when needed. If you want a clearer, more balanced understanding of the thyroid-estrogen connection and how hormone balance affects autoimmune thyroid health, you'll get a lot out of this episode.
