How to cure Hashimoto hypothyroidism - #26138
Dragana Mladenović
I have very high Thyroid antibodies. I wake up more tired than when I went to sleep, low energy, brain fog, forgetfulness, frequent headaches, mental confusion, unable to make decisions, blocked, confused even with daily tasks, sometimes my eyes hurt, lethargic, no will, no desires, withdrawing from people, from crowds, sensitive to other people's energies, never diagnosed with autism but I believe that I experience some autistic traits...

hello dragana mladenovic,
You're 51, and your symptoms strongly reflect the deeper impact of Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism this isn’t just a thyroid issue, it’s an autoimmune, systemic imbalance that affects your energy, cognition, emotions, and cellular function.
What you’re describing waking up exhausted, mental fog, headaches, decision fatigue, withdrawal, eye discomfort, and sensitivity to people’s energies is very real. This isn’t “laziness” or mood swings. It’s a Vata–Kapha imbalance rooted in Agni dushti (metabolic slowdown) and autoimmune Avarana (obstruction of body’s inner intelligence). Your high antibodies suggest the body is in a chronic self-attack mode. This disturbs the Majja Dhatu (nervous tissue) and Manovaha Srotas (mind-body channels).
You’re not imagining the fog, confusion, or withdrawal. These are signs your Ojas (vitality) is depleted and your Prana is not flowing clearly.
Internal Medicines (8–12 weeks):
Kanchanar Guggulu – 2 tabs twice daily after food
Ashwagandha Churna + Brahmi Churna – ½ tsp each with warm milk at night
Saraswatarishta – 15 ml + 15 ml water after lunch and dinner
Sootashekhara Ras – 1 tab before meals twice a day (for Agni & headache)
Amritarishta – 20 ml + 20 ml water twice a day after food (for inflammation & fatigue)
Mahatikta Ghrita – 1 tsp in the morning with lukewarm water
External + Lifestyle:
Abhyanga (self oil massage) with warm Dhanwantharam Taila or Bala Ashwagandha Taila daily before bath – helps both body & mind
Nasya (Nose drops) with Anu Taila – 2 drops in each nostril in morning
Walk in morning sun for 15 mins without sunglasses – to reset your internal clock and improve Ojas
Sit quietly in the evening and practice Bhramari + Nadi Shodhana pranayama for 10 mins
Avoid cold food, wheat, curd, fermented food, and excess pulses
Eat warm, freshly cooked food – add turmeric, black pepper, ginger, cinnamon
Include cow ghee, soaked almonds, moong dal, lauki, beetroot, and methi
No skipping breakfast. Eat within 1 hour of waking
Warm milk with nutmeg + cardamom 3x/week at bedtime
Add moringa, drumstick leaves, or amla weekly
Investigations to Track Every 3–6 Months:
TSH, Free T3, Free T4
Anti-TPO antibodies
Serum B12, D3, Ferritin
CRP, ESR
CBC
This mental fog and energetic shutdown is not permanent. Hashimoto’s recovery is possible not by just managing hormones, but by calming your immune system, rebuilding digestion, and restoring inner clarity. Ayurveda gives you that framework gently, naturally, and completely.
If you have any doubts, you can contact me.
Take care,
Regards, Dr. Karthika
