A healthy thyroid gland is essential to overall wellness, which is why hormone therapy at Rejuvime Medical includes evaluating its function. At our Louisiana and Mississippi clinics, our hormone specialists determine whether an overactive or underactive thyroid is causing symptoms associated with hormonal imbalance.
What Does the Thyroid Gland Do?
The thyroid gland, located in the neck just below your Adam’s apple (laryngeal prominence), plays a major role in your metabolism—the process of how your body transforms the food you consume into energy. It helps regulate a range of functions by steadily releasing hormones into the bloodstream, ensuring the cardiovascular, nervous, and digestive systems all work properly.
The thyroid relies on iodine to make hormones, so getting enough iodine in your diet is important because the body doesn’t produce it naturally.
Aging & Thyroid Function

Thyroid disorders become more common as people get older, and hypothyroidism (when the thyroid underproduces hormones) is much more common than hyperthyroidism (when the thyroid overproduces hormones). But since symptoms associated with the natural aging process mimic symptoms of an underactive thyroid gland, hypothyroidism may go undiagnosed. Women—who develop thyroid disorders more often than men—may chalk up the symptoms to menopause. The condition, however, is treatable with thyroid hormone supplementation.

Thyroid management is patient-specific, and overlapping symptoms may reflect non-thyroid conditions. Consult your primary care provider or endocrinologist to identify the appropriate course of care.
