When you feel tired, several causes are responsible. Fatigue late in the day, after an effort, is quite natural and is due to different problems.
Fatigue associated with "toxic"
Tobacco, alcohol and pollution we are pumping energy. Wherever possible, we should limit or avoid them.
An unregulated power supply
Fatigue may be due to shortcomings or deficiencies in certain nutrients.
Side effects of medicines
Some treatments (chemotherapy, anxiolytics, antihistamines ...) can have side effects such as asthenia (fatigue). The reactions are variable from one person to another, we must try different medications in the same class to see which is best supported, while remaining efficient.
Hormonal Problems
The decline in sex hormones and pituitary, age-related, or hypothyroidism, makes us more tiring. A doctor may check hormone levels and act accordingly.
Diseases
Hepatitis, HIV, cancer ... may be accompanied by fatigue. It may even be a first sign.

Fibromyalgia
The pain associated with Fibromyalgia is sometimes triggered by overwork, after infection, the inoculation of a vaccine after a physical trauma (fall, surgery ...) or psychological (bereavement, divorce, redundancy ...). This is called reactive fibromyalgia.
Diffuse hypersensitivity to pain
Yet nevertheless it is difficult to characterize fibromyalgia. French to Congress of Rheumatology in December 2005, Professor Paul Le Goff has been defined "as a diffuse hypersensitivity to pain and allodynia widespread [abnormal perception of pain]," scientifically proven. For a fibromyalgia - and functional MRI shows by example - the response to a stimulus is more important than in a control subject, showing the reality of pain. These experiments are not suitable for a diagnosis. It remains based on a set of symptoms, which is why we call fibromyalgia syndrome.
Mechanisms of Fibromyalgia still unexplained
The doctor proceeds by elimination of other diseases that can trigger the same symptoms as inflammatory rheumatism, hypothyroidism, sleep apnea, drug myopathy (muscle damage associated with taking certain drugs) or depression.
The patient insisted on this approach for diagnosis that would not prematurely label on fibromyalgia pain that is unexplainable. "It must not become an" trash. " A young woman with Fibromyalgia just discovered that she had really a polyarthritis that was brewing, "says Beatrice Chateau-Car, the Association of fibromyalgia de Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. In addition, a person with fibromyalgia may also develop a disease that causes widespread pain, we should not do everything on the account of fibromyalgia. "
The diagnosis, once asked, what was reassuring: it is not a serious illness. The patient is not out of the woods, because we still do not know what triggers these disorders - a physical cause, such as intoxication or a psychological cause?
Work over the last ten years have looked for possible links between his appearance and depression and anxiety disorders. The psychological cause is viewed with suspicion by the patients. Testimonies abound of unwanted among psychiatrists and psychoanalysts: "It was running in circles. I felt good, I think that I was not depressed and that is what he finally concluded, "I had a long psychotherapy. If it helped me in my relationships with others, it has not changed my pain ", etc..
For Carole Robert, delegate general of France Fibromyalgia, "there is a lot of depression in fibromyalgia, but that is the result of a disease that causes them to suffer and isolated."
A multidisciplinary care
Most experts agree on the idea that a combination of factors contribute to the condition fibromyalgia. A notice qu'entendent patients' associations, which, for refusing a "psychiatric" of fibromyalgia do not rule out a psychological component, as in many diseases.
Hence care is also multidisciplinary, competitive results, although uneven.
Drug in the arsenal, there is such as analgesics, some antidepressants and anxiolytics. With varying results, depending on the patients.
Relaxation, controlled physical activity, psychological treatments (including cognitive-behavioral therapy) and lifestyle have an essential place.
Massages, balneotherapy, physiotherapy, sophrology, hypnosis, homeopathy, acupuncture, cures, transcutaneous neurostimulator or soft gymnastics ... patients have resorted to all kinds of "technical", much of which end of alternative medicine. "But be careful not to" bricolage ".
We can try diets, but this must be done in a controlled manner to prevent shortcomings, "warns Michelle Judic, the Fibromyalgia Association of Morbihan, which also warns against so-called experts, some offer surgery.
Not serious, but disabling
While not, strictly speaking, a serious illness, fibromyalgia has a considerable impact on social life, at some point to prevent the continuation of the occupation. Not on the list of diseases of long duration, disabling his character is left to the discretion of the medical officers of Social Security. Which are still in their ranks, according to the associations, number of fibrosceptiques. The difficulty for the fibromyalgia is to be believed, but on that side, progress is being made.

Fibromyalgia : Case Study
Brigitte has since his youth of great fatigue and pain to the cervical vertebrae that anti-inflammatory drugs have never calmed down. "The pain came in increments, with the most violent episodes, as when you move in 1993 when I could no longer walk. Six years ago I had shingles, and there, it was the fall ... Lower back, elbows, the hands are affected. I was a piano teacher and I can not play, "she says. His exams, radios and analysis have revealed nothing abnormal.
Jacqueline those do not cause pain that began one day in the street, literally shearing the two. "The treatments are ineffective and their devastating side effects. It does what is happening, "she says. It has always been sports like running a very old lady and has memory problems. Anne "evil everywhere, all the time, lack of sleep, was exhausted and not accept to have lost its intellectual capacity. She gave up work to keep his meager forces to raise her children, "a choice hard financially and morally."
Brigitte, Jacqueline and Anne have consulted long and in vain, various specialists - rheumatologists, neurologists, psychiatrists ... They now put a name on this evil which they live a hell on a daily basis: fibromyalgia.
Four symptoms are found in almost all patients:
- Diffuse generalized pain, or sometimes localized, permanent, often exacerbated in cases of effort;
- The fatigue;
- Sleep with a non-restorative sleep;
- Morning stiffness that requires the patient to dérouiller, as if suffering from osteoarthritis.
May be associated with headaches, digestive disorders, chronic colitis, irritable bladder, restless legs, cold extremities, anxiety or depression.

Hypothyroid mysterious disease
Pain, fatigue, sleep disorders, dysfunctions that no review can not explain fibromyalgia second leading cause of consultations in Rheumatology, is a mysterious disease.
Recognized in 1992 by the World Health Organization as unspecified rheumatism, fibromyalgia is still ignored or underestimated worldwide by some of the medical and social agencies, despite significant progress due to patient. Patients showing a long wandering and medical ignorance of doctors and their family and professional, which often conclude with a "sick imagination".
It is not a rare disease, it affects about 2% of the population of Western countries, most women (75 to 80% of cases). In the United States, it accounted for 8% of disability pension.

Seasonal affective disorder
Seasonal affective disorder can be difficult to diagnose until we can recognize a characteristic development, given that many of the symptoms are similar to those of other types of depression. Also, they are sometimes misdiagnosed as hypothyroidism, the hypoglycemia, infectious mononucleosis and other viral infections.
Many people feel the need to "hibernate" in the approach of winter. They eat more and sleep for longer periods. This is normal behavior. But in people suffering from seasonal affective disorder, the symptoms are much more serious. Seasonal affective disorder is a true depressive illness and may disrupt daily life of a person.
Symptoms may include:
Changes in the appetite
Need of sugar or starch
Weight Gain
Decreased energy
Fatigue
Tend to sleep too
Difficulty concentrating
Irritability
Feelings of anxiety and despair
Ideas of death and suicide
Depression often more pronounced in the evening
Symptoms of seasonal affective disorder usually occurs between October and April. Some people are affected during this period. Others may notice a change only for a couple of weeks or months. There are also "reverse seasonal affective disorder", where some people experience seasonal depression during the summer rather than winter, possibly a reaction to the heat and humidity. During this period, depression is most often characterized by insomnia, decreased appetite, weight loss, agitation and anxiety. Some people find relief by visiting places where the climate is cooler. Generally, normal air conditioning is not sufficient to relieve this type of depression and an antidepressant may be required. In rare cases, a patient may experience a depression in the winter and summer, while feeling good in the fall and spring.
It is important to seek medical attention if your symptoms are occurring at a certain time of year, for at least two consecutive years. In light of the caveats mentioned above, most people report an improved mood clearly in the spring and summer.
Treatment
Many of us feel a decline in energy and mood during the fall and winter. It would be beneficial to spend more time outdoors during the day, with our environment in order to receive more natural light and taking greater care of our physical needs.
Take a break light "rather than a coffee break.
Move your desk or chair so you sit closer to a window.
It may also be useful to install a light spectrum.
Take care of your physical needs by adopting a healthy eating and sleeping on a regular basis to increase your energy level and soften your mood.

causes of seasonal affective disorder
Research continues to uncover the causes of seasonal affective disorder. However, scientists believe they are related to seasonal changes on exposure to daylight. A "biological internal clock" in the brain serves to regulate our circadian rhythms (daily) and the production of neurotransmitters that affect our sleep, our mood and our appetite. At the time of distant hunters, sun control activities. People were active when the sun was shining and slept at the sunset. In our modern society, the sun no longer controls our activities. We go to work in the dark and we arrive at home long after sunset. We are working on the inside with poor lighting and we rarely venture into the real light. Although we are unable to follow the sun over our internal biological clock always shows our body to sleep more when the days shorten. This clock has the effect of disrupting the body in relation to our daily work schedule and our family.
Melatonin, a hormone linked to sleep secreted by the pineal gland in the brain, has been linked to seasonal affective disorder. This hormone, which can cause symptoms of depression, is produced at higher levels in the dark. So when the days become shorter and darker, the production of this hormone increases.

Alternative Hypothyroidism Treatment
Yes. These are real "phyto-medicines with indications of against-indications and possible side effects. Uncontrolled doses of soy isoflavones (plant estrogens) associated with an excess of soybean exposed to a food too much active drug. The recommendations of the French Agency for Food Safety have reviewed the subject (no more than 1 mg / kg / day).
It should also be cautious when you suffer from thyroid dysfunction, as the soy isoflavones affect the metabolism of our thyroid hormones, but also of levothyroxine, a drug used to treat both hyper as hypothyroidism.
A-indications against what do you mean?
Phyto-oestrogens and foods are soy, such as hormonal treatment of menopause, not recommended for women with breast cancer. In case of thrombo-embolic accident recently, I also prefer a precaution not to give.
Yes. The treatment combines herbal phyto-estrogens and phytoprogestagènes is a real alternative to conventional hormone treatment.

hypothyroidism treatment with phyto-hormones
In addition hypothyroidism treatment with phyto-hormones involve a classical treatment and can reduce the doses or/and times of treatment, and a gradual weaning in three, six or nine months.
Are this treatment of hypothyroidism effective?
There are many side to the treatment of hypothyroid with the phyto-hormones, there is no definitive straight forwards answers, it depends on number of factors.
The critics of this treatment argue that the THM is the only treatment that has proved its efficacy against placebo ... But these same critics strongly discourage the phyto-hormones because they are dangerous!
In fact, this treatment is effective in a large majority of women against hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness. Against osteoporosis, the effect is limited. The phyto-estrogen, in soy, but also hops, sage, flax, red clover, the act cluster, the kudzu or alfalfa.
Can they be taken in the form of dietary supplements? Yes, but with the advice of a doctor. We must not do anything harmful to our own health, and only a practitioner can advise you so you can make an informed decision.

Hypothyroidism Hashimoto Thyroid and Pregnancy
General concern of new mother to be with hypothyroidism and other thyroid problems like Hashimoto is while being pregnant and being treated from for Hashimoto thyroid.
In some cases despite the fact that treatment has never balanced the thyroid, that is not what worries new mother the most, what bothers is the antithyroid antibody levels (about 600 IU / ml instead of 25 max.). These antibodies may transfers to the baby during the pregnancy and at birth, they will inevitably affects the baby's thyroid?
what are the chances of having a healthy baby and how to avoid the inherited thyroid problems ?
By all means to start new mother have to take a particularly good care of her diet plan as earlier as possible, having balanced diet and good dietary supplements is a must at earlier as possible, to minimize the adverse effect of hypothyroidism and other thyroid dis balance on her own physical body and therefore minimize the effect of inheritance for the baby.
For the fact all mother to be needs to know their health much better to be prepared and to reduce the unwanted worries it is has by itself too much of negative impact. The fact of the matter the during the pregnancy time activity of the thyroid gland to increase and in some cases drastically it depends on whole list o factors of the body metabolism and immune system. Therefore even though that the numbers looks scary it may not be out of acceptable balanced corridor for the thyroid activities during the pregnancy. So even if thyroid functionality is being defective the thyroid balance may be is not too unbalanced, so the risk factor is limited , however the worries and overall psychological state of mind due to the lack of necessary information may create much greater risk factors then the defective thyroid.
Worry for your child. Antithyroid antibodies may not pass until delivery, and so this transition. This will not impact significantly thyroid function of your child and if it is not disturbed with your worries and depressive mental stages.
Remember always that hypothyroidism is diagnosed in newborns during the first eight days of birth in all maternity wards. This test is mandatory and let the doctors know of your hypothyroid backgrounds so will be due diligent and particularly vigilant.

Thyroid disorder Algerian case
From media news :
Approximately 1300 new cases of thyroid cancer are reported each year in Algeria, this statistics was revealed in Algiers Semrouni by Professor Mourad, head of department of endocrinology at the center of the fight against cancer "Pierre et Marie Curie.
Although this is considered to be not a widespread in Algeria, thyroid cancer is among the conditions treated at the level of services of endocrinology.
For his part, Professor Zahra Kemali, Head of Department of Endocrinology at the central hospital of the army indicated that the rate of patients suffering from thyroid cancer hospitalized at this institution varies represents 30 to 40% of patients with endocrine disorders.
The study days on endocrine disorders are part of continuing education for doctors including screening, treatment of these disorders and monitoring their evolution throughout the national territory.
Professor Karim Chaou CHU Beni Messous for his part described the disorders of parathyroid glands that these glands controlling rate of calcium in the body.
Disorders of calcium are the origin of fragile bones that can undergo repeated fractures, he said.
He stressed the need to analyze and parathormnie calcium to prevent these disorders and prevent complications.

Hypothyroidism Treatment with Healthy and Balanced Diet
To understand the need for the healthy diets there is need to understand some of the indications of dietetics and nutrition science.
A sick body is the body full of "dirt", intoxicated over the period of time or the whole by the accumulation of pollutants of various endogenous or exogenous origin. It has become a commonplace to say that the food industry, as it is currently functions, is a primal source of toxins for our body, mind and soul, here is I will explain why. All food producers are in business to make money this is obvious, and any good business is in business to maximize the profit, but what is not obvious that maximizing the profit at the expense of our health. Unfortunately, there are any sides to this paradigm, maximizing the profit for the food business could be not only by substituting the ingredients with the cheap knock-offs, or producing them in other countries where health and regulatory authorities do not exist or do not work in an way that ours in North America does.
Additionally body contamination occurs even with the "healthy" food produced by the high health standards producers, because of all the additives and chemical preservatives which are regular to the food processing and composes the food item formula. Therefore regardless the of the food item due to the food we consume composition, body gets contaminated since the food digestion in the body induces an additional production of pollutants, including free radicals, which are generated by chemical reactions of metabolism.
Some people are more reactive and receptive to the body contamination other are more tolerant this is due to the immune system individual reactions. People with hypothyroidism are particularly sensitive to the body contaminations. Understanding the imperative body functions and food intake will help to rebalanced a food intake and create an individually balanced diet for the consideration of hypothyroidism condition. This dietary approach for the hypothyrodism condition requires a healthy and balanced diet, as much as possible free of pollutants, focusing on biological substances.
Most of the diet plan for ordinary people who do not display any symptoms of hypothyroidism condition are more damaging to the people with hypothyroid. Recent studies have shown that the food supply under these diet plans may be as plentiful as it is deficient in many essential nutrients, including most vitamins, elements and anti-factors, which are the most important for treatment of hypothyroidism.
Focusing on certain type of foods, that are essential in treatment of hypothyroidism, avoiding others type of food that diminishing the health effect by overloading the digestive process and simply eliminating the consumption of those types of food that harmful will be rightfully called a healthy and balanced diet for treatment of hypothyroidism.
The general concept of hypothyroidism diets includes: some micro nutrient that is essential to involve alternately and intermittently. The pace of the meal also includes its share of importance: it is better to eat at regular hours, avoiding overloading the dinner and snacks at any time. Cook simply by focusing on cooking braised or steamed. Avoid all products with refined white sugar and artificial sweeteners and flavor enhancers, real poisons. Also avoid dairy products especially the milk cow.
Also the pattern of hypothyroidism daily dietary intake should be comprised of the following food groups, however the individual adjustments are necessary to make depending on personal adaptability and individual sensitivity for each type of food :
• 50% of fruits and vegetables,
• 25% of cereals
• 25% of plant proteins (for vegetarians) or animal protein for the rest of us additionally the fish oil mega 3, 6, 9 groups are essential.

Hypothyroidism Treatment : Fibromyalgia
For many years, there was a confusion what really fibromyalgia (FM) case includes to be diagnosed properly, and by large account it was unknown to the public and the medical profession itself, so what was determined to be fibromyalgia was not exactly what it was. Nevertheless, it is still being aught at medical teaching faculties and remains reduced to the bare minimum of the term.
Nowadays fibromyalgia becoming increasingly a disease of current wide interest. Fibromyalgia is defined as a syndrome characterized by the presence of musculoskeletal pain not explained diffuse, evolving for at least three months. They are located at the level of fibrous tissue and muscle tendons. All causes of myalgia excluding the inflammatory, metabolic and toxic.
Usually, the pain associated with fibromyalgia are the range from chronic fatigue to sleep disturbances and psychological disturbances, to name a few like difficulty coping, and family disputes, depression - but these are common description for the hypothyroidism. So what is the difference? It is not unusual for fibromyalgia evolves as part of a spastic colitis, headache, genito-urinary disorders and Raynaud's syndrome.
Present day understanding of the disease is putting fibromyalgia as only psychological disease, disregarding the direct link to hypothyroidism. It could be explained that incorporating the link to hypothyroidism will drastically expand the group of people who will be considered have this condition, since number of people with hypothyroidism is by far larger group of people who suffers from some from of fibromyalgia during the course of their disease or permanently having some minor forms of fibromyalgia.
World Health Organization WHO has recognized the authenticity of fibromyalgia at the Copenhagen Declaration in August 1992 (labeled as ICD 10 M 79-0).

Today statistics shows that fibromyalgia affects 3% to 5% of the adult population of industrialized countries, studies on the rest of the world are inconclusive, ad most of people test do have the hypothyroidism disease or symptoms as well.
Lack of international data may also be to the fact that it is not so apparent in other countries and other ethnic groups, it is astonishing but it could be that other countries and ethnic groups have long been kept away from the pollutants of various kinds, that we as society keeps on producing. pollutions of air, water and other immediate products of intake like food considered to be one of the origins of the fibromyalgia, but the interesting question here to compare the hypothyroidism data across the patience with fibromyalgia.
