Here's a recent story that we enjoyed reading! #womenshealth #thyroidhealth #palomahealth #PatientStories

On this World Environment Day, it's important to recognize the significant impact climate change has on our health. As highlighted in a recent article by News9Live, climate change is linked to several diseases. Among these, the risk of hypothyroidism is of particular concern. Changes in temperature and environmental stressors can disrupt thyroid function, leading to a range of health issues. Thyroid medications are already the most prescribed drug in the country, growing at a high 5% CAGR. Could climate change be the sole reason? We doubt it, considering the autoimmune component of hypothyroidism, but it definitely plays a role! https://lnkd.in/ewp9mT6c #WorldEnvironmentDay #ClimateChange #ThyroidHealth #Hypothyroidism #PalomaHealth #womenshealth

At Paloma Health, we understand that hypothyroid patients face relatively high total care costs due to various comorbidities directly resulting from an underactive thyroid. Along these lines, a new study in Springer Nature Group highlights how hypothyroidism increases the risk of osteoporosis and related fractures, one of the many health issues linked to low thyroid function and an expensive one. By 2025, osteoporosis is predicted to cause approximately three million fractures, accounting for $25.3 billion in annual costs. We cannot underscore enough the importance of early diagnosis and comprehensive thyroid management to reduce these risks and associated healthcare costs. https://lnkd.in/evAtcXdk #ThyroidHealth #Hypothyroidism #Osteoporosis #HealthcareCosts #PalomaHealth #Womenshealth

Another reason why we need personalized treatment for hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's! Among our patients, depression ranks as one of the top three symptoms of these conditions. In fact, 60% of those with hypothyroidism experience some form of anxiety and depression. Recent research underscores this connection, revealing significant findings about the relationship between Major Depression Disorder and thyroid diseases. The study highlights a strong causal association between Major Depression Disorder and hypothyroidism, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis in individuals of European ancestry. However, this association was not found in individuals of East Asian ancestry. https://lnkd.in/e4zq2NT4

At Paloma Health, we are dedicated to advancing women's health and providing holistic, compassionate care. We are thrilled to share insights from our very own Marina Tarasova, highlighted in her recent article on Chasm Partners. #WomensHealth

As the Evening Standard recent article points out, the gap in awareness and specialized care for hypothyroidism is evident. There is a pressing need for a cultural shift in the perception and management of thyroid disorders, better education for healthcare providers, and increased awareness among employers to ensure women receive appropriate care. At Paloma Health, we are committed to leading this change and ensuring that every woman receives the comprehensive care she needs. 🔗 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/dyXgUqxH #palomahealth #hypothyroidism #hashimotos #thyroidcare

Addressing the disparities in women's health has the potential to extend and improve the quality of life for women globally and significantly boost the global economy by an estimated $1 trillion annually by 2040. Yet, the women's health gap continues to be an industry issue. Here are 4 Underlying Causes of the Women's Health Gap 👇 1. Science 🔬: Traditional studies of human biology often focus on the male body, leading to a limited understanding of sex-based biological differences. This results in fewer and less effective treatments specifically designed for women. 2. Data 🔢: The health issues affecting women are frequently underestimated, with many datasets excluding or undervaluing critical conditions that predominantly affect women. 3. Care Delivery 👩⚕️: Women frequently encounter barriers to accessing care, experience delays in diagnosis, and often receive suboptimal treatment compared to men. 4. Investment 💰: There has historically been less investment in health conditions that primarily affect women, perpetuating a cycle of inadequate scientific understanding and insufficient data to support new investments. Together, we can close the health gap by prioritizing research, enhancing data collection, and improving care delivery, leading to better health outcomes and economic growth. https://lnkd.in/gZKa2xZ3 #palomahealth #hypothyroidism #hashimotos #thyroidcare Insights from McKinsey Global Institute
