White cinquefoil root - uses, contraindications. White cinquefoil - properties and contraindications

Name in Latin: Potentilla alba

Synonyms: five-fingered, five-fingered, five-fingered, mezhipershchitsa, five-leafed, five-fingered, five-fingered, white perstach, white oubrovka, five-fingered

Description

White cinquefoil is popularly known as cinquefoil, quinquefoil or quinquefoil - for its five-petaled flowers. It is also called white dubroika, white perstach, and mezhipershchitsa. Botanists call this perennial plant Potentilla alba. Typically, cinquefoil grass reaches from 10 to 25 centimeters in height, and a significant part of the plant is hidden underground - the roots are quite long, up to 100 centimeters. During flowering, an inattentive eye may mistake Potentilla for Strawberry - it has the same white flowers, reminiscent of strawberry in shape. However, there are few leaves on the stems; their color and shape differ.

Cinquefoil is not demanding on the climate; it manages to grow in both dry and humid areas, and takes root in sandy and clay soils. Grows best in conditions of good light, in forest edges, meadows, coniferous and deciduous forests. However, despite its unpretentiousness, there is not so much white cinquefoil in nature - it is found in different parts of Europe, but everywhere in small quantities. Moreover, in some areas it is listed in the Red Book. The plant is rare because the cinquefoil grows extremely slowly - it takes about 10 years to reach its full size. You can find it in Italy, Bulgaria, Germany, Ukraine, and Belarus. In Russia, it is distributed mainly in the European part, but you can find white Cinquefoil in the Urals and Western Siberia.

Preparation and storage

Both aboveground and underground parts of the plant are used for the production of medicinal raw materials. The herbaceous part is harvested with flowers. The flowering period of White Cinquefoil is May-June. The roots are dug up in spring and autumn. Small shoots are not touched; plants that are 3-4 years old are considered suitable for collection, when the plant accumulates a lot of albinin, a substance with thyroid-stimulating activity. To treat endocrine diseases, only the root part of the plant is used - leaves and flowers do not have the desired effect. The collected raw materials are cleaned of contaminants and dried in the fresh air or in constantly ventilated areas.

Usage history

The medicinal power of Cinquefoil has been known to people since ancient times. One of the written sources that has survived to this day, which describes the healing effects of cinquefoil, is the famous medieval treatise “On the Powers of Herbs,” first published in Italy in the 15th century. It devotes an entire poetic chapter to cinquefoil with a detailed image in which it is easy to recognize the “pentifolium.” According to a medieval author, this herb is beautiful, but bitter, heals various injuries well, relieves stomach pain, heals burns and even helps with snake bites.

Clinical studies

It is known that clinical studies of Cinquefoil were carried out in the Soviet Union - scientists studied its effect on the thyroid gland and obtained excellent results. After the prospects for using cinquefoil for medicinal purposes were explored, attempts were made to grow the plant for industrial use.

By the way, there is an opinion that the tradition of drinking cinquefoil in the form of tea helped residents of Belarusian Polesie avoid thyroid diseases after the Chernobyl accident - in other areas equidistant from the site of the terrible incident, many more goiter patients were subsequently identified. Cinquefoil helped many to prevent catastrophic consequences for the body due to the iodine content in the plant, as well as due to its ability to remove radiation from the body.

Separate studies of Cinquefoil are still being carried out today; scientists are studying the chemical composition of the plant, its biologically active substances and their effect on human health. Thus, it has been established that the thyroid-stimulating properties of cinquefoil are provided by the active substance albinin.

Chemical composition

The study of cinquefoil at the Research Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Novosibirsk revealed its complex multicomponent composition. Both the aboveground part of the plant and its root system are rich in valuable components, and in the latter the concentration of healing substances is much higher. Potentilla roots are saturated with astringent and anti-inflammatory effects - they reach their maximum concentration when flowers appear on the plant. They also contain iridoids and phenolcarboxylic acids. The roots contain quercetin, a flavonoid with antioxidant effects. Other chemical elements also provide benefits - boron, iron, sodium, aluminum, calcium, silver, cobalt, chromium, manganese, selenium, barium, copper and lithium. The content of zinc and magnesium in cinquefoil is especially high - several times higher than the average in medicinal plants.

The leaves, stems and flowers of cinquefoil are also rich in flavonoids, iridoids and. Phenolcarboxylic acids prevent cell mutations, help strengthen the body's immune defense, and also produce a diuretic effect.

An important factor affecting the thyroid gland is the content of elemental iodine and iodide anion in cinquefoil.

Application in medicine

Most of all, cinquefoil is known as a natural remedy that has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the endocrine system. It is widely used to treat thyroid diseases. Indications for use are thyrotoxicosis, thyroid hyperplasia, euthyroidism, goiter. As a rule, in case of serious disorders of the thyroid gland, cinquefoil is prescribed for a fairly long period, and there are cases of significant improvement and even complete healing. An important advantage of this treatment is that cinquefoil has been proven to be non-toxic. It can be used as an iodine-containing product to prevent iodine deficiency and improve the health of the body. As part of collections of medicinal plants that ensure the supply of necessary iodine to the body, cinquefoil is used together with Cocklebur, Cetraria, or walnuts.

Thyroid gland

It is noted that cinquefoil normalizes hormonal balance, improving the functioning of many organs - after all, hormones regulate many functions of the body. Taking cinquefoil has a positive effect on the gastrointestinal tract, as well as the cardiovascular system. stomach ulcers, enterocolitis, liver diseases (such as hepatitis), dysentery - in all these cases, the antimicrobial and healing effect of cinquefoil contributes to healing.

With cinquefoil, indigestion and colic go away faster. As an effective natural antiseptic, cinquefoil is also used as an external remedy - to cure various abscesses, contusions, bruises, and skin damage, cinquefoil raw materials are used, crushed to a powdery state.

Taking white cinquefoil is contraindicated for hypothyroidism!

Heart attacks and strokes

The antitumor effect of cinquefoil, its ability to resolve nodes and increase the body's defenses are also known. When taking cinquefoil, excessive sweating disappears, shortness of breath goes away, and manifestations of rheumatism and gout decrease. The functioning of the nervous system is normalized. Patients note a positive effect on general well-being and mood - an anti-stress effect. There is even a cosmetic effect - nails and hair become stronger, many skin problems disappear.

For kidney diseases, the diuretic effect of cinquefoil, as well as its analgesic properties, have a healing effect. In case of colds, acute respiratory infections accompanied by cough, cinquefoil preparations promote rapid recovery due to their expectorant effect.

White cinquefoil has contraindications for use. However, due to its hypotonic effect, it is not recommended for patients suffering from low blood pressure, and in case of cardiovascular problems it should be taken with caution.

Hello, dear Yulia Evgenievna!

I would like to thank you for your invaluable work and the warmth that you put into your work, accompanying every answer to us, the suffering, with love.

In April of this year, I visited a store on Samotechnaya (in Moscow), bought white Cinquefoil and drank 2 courses of tincture, according to the scheme 20-30 drops 3 times - 2 courses with a break.

All the best to you.

Hello Yulia Evgenievna!

The background is this.

In November 2013, my thyroid hormones were normal, except for AT-TPO - 207.1 U/ml.

A course of Cinquefoil and a collection of anti-inflammatory herbs were prescribed. After drinking Potentilla white chickens, I took tests in January 2014 - everything was normal except AT-TPO - 180.1 U/ml.

Having changed course from White Cinquefoil to Cocklebur + more herbs (among them I remember Cetraria moss, violets, Raspberry leaves), my affairs went great. Both my health and my mood have improved.

In August 2014, AT-TPO was 72.9 U/ml (miracle).

Thanks again.

Hello, dear Yulia Evgenievna.
My situation is briefly as follows. In March 2017, I was diagnosed with thyrotoxicosis. The main symptoms were: very fast pulse (180-200 beats per minute), hand tremors and shortness of breath. She started treatment with tyrosol (30 mg/day). Although hormonal levels began to gradually return to normal, the pulse could not be reduced further than 140-155 beats per minute while taking Bisoprolol. A diagnosis was made: arrhythmia. And in August 2017, I had to undergo cardioversion.
Hormone levels returned to normal by the end of 2017; the maintenance dose of tyrosol from the beginning of 2018 to the present is 5 mg/day. I stopped taking bisoprolol (maintenance dose) in mid-August on the recommendation of the treating cardiologist. Now is the time to stop taking tyrosol, as the endocrinologist initially explained, and see what the thyroid reaction will be. I take hormone tests every 3 months, the results this year are within the normal range.
Unfortunately, our official medicine does not give recommendations on taking herbs or other methods other than tablets. Doctors honestly warn that the relapse rate when discontinuing the drug is above 50%. I would really like to prevent this from happening, so I’m looking forward to your recommendation: what can I replace tyrosol with to prevent the recurrence of hyperthyroidism.
While I bought Endocrinol "...": if I don’t get an answer from you, I’ll start taking 2 capsules once a day, as written in the instructions.
Thank you in advance.

Good afternoon, Natalya!
I share your doubts and concerns. The risk of relapse remains, and largely depends on the state of the nervous system. But there is no need to be afraid of this. As they say - “Whoever is afraid of something will happen to him.”
Therefore, I propose to switch from tyrosol to its full plant analogue - Cinquefoil root:
1. Decoction of White Cinquefoil.
- 1 tbsp. of the root, crushed to the size of a grain of rice, pour 200 ml of boiling water into a thermos, leave for 8 hours (overnight), drink 2 tbsp. 4 times a day, 15 minutes before meals. In 3 weeks you will need to check your hormones.
If the pulse does not return to normal, add the following herbal collection:
2. Collection of herbs.
Roots: Valerian officinalis - 1; Melissa officinalis - 2, blood-red hawthorn flowers - 1, hawthorn fruits - 2, rose hips - 2.



I will be glad to help, Natalya!
Good luck and see you!

Hello, dear herbalist.
I have big health problems. I have been suffering from hyperthyroidism (thyrotoxicosis) for more than 3 years. I drank ASD-2, but I didn’t have the strength, and therefore I treated this disease only at the end of my health. For the first time during hospitalization, I was prescribed tyrosol, but after this drug I developed a visually pronounced goiter. Before this, he was almost invisible. When I came home from the hospital, I gave up these thoughts about tyrosol on my own and haven’t taken it since.
At the moment, during a recent hospitalization, a diagnosis was made: diffuse toxic nodular goiter. I have no strength to do anything. At the slightest excitement I shake. Became sensitive to heat. That is, I don’t accept it at all. I sleep without a blanket. Almost naked. Otherwise, I can’t sleep. My husband says that recently I have been grinding my teeth in my sleep. I'm suffocating in my sleep. Severe shortness of breath, heart pain, bulging eyes, pressure surges, swelling of the legs. And the sleep is too deep. I fell asleep, even though there were bombs nearby, but I couldn’t hear them. Getting up in the morning is unrealistic for me if they don’t pick me up and start shaking me. It's no use further. I don’t hear anything, no alarm clock, nothing to wake me up. This is not normal, although they say that deep sleep is not a pathology.
So, tests. TSH General urine test. Leukocytes (microscopy) > 100. Covers the entire field of view. Leukocyte esterase +++, hemoglobin +, nitrites ++, protein - 0.672.
My central nervous system suffers. Hyperpigmentation. I really don’t want to drink something like Tyrozol. I hope that you can tell me herbs, how to drink them, when and next. I beg you very much.

Hello Malika!
My opinion does not coincide with yours!))
With this level of T4, you cannot do without tyrosol. Goiter is not a consequence of taking tyrosol, but a consequence of an incorrect (too high) dose.
The withdrawal of tyrosol led to a worsening of the disease. If you do not immediately restore your intake of at least 20 mcg of tyrosol per day, your heart will suffer seriously!
And only add herbs to the indicated dose of tyrosol (10 mcg in the morning and evening):
1. Collection of herbs.
Roots: Baikal skullcap - 1, White cinquefoil - 1; Alfalfa - 1.5, European beetroot - 4, blood-red hawthorn fruits - 2, Melissa officinalis - 3, Sandy immortelle - 2, Motherwort cordial - 3.
Grind the grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, the roots to 3-5 mm - first mechanically to small pieces, then using a coffee grinder; mix evenly.
Take herbs without a dose indicated in tablespoons.
- 1 tbsp. pour 300.0 ml of cold drinking water over the mixture for an hour, then bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, for 15 minutes.
Cool, strain, squeeze and add to 300.0 ml.
Drink 100.0 ml three times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months. Hormone control - exactly 3 weeks from the start of treatment.
2. Infusion of Comfrey root, at the same time.
- 3 tbsp. Heat the roots, crushed to a grain, for half an hour in 500.0 ml of water in a sealed container over low heat. Do not bring to a boil, it loses its properties! Leave for 4 hours, strain.
Drink 2 tbsp. 3 times a day, on an empty stomach. Course - 3 weeks, control of TSH, T4 st., T3 total.
3. Add the main tincture of Cinquefoil root.
- Grind 20.0 g of Potentilla alba root to the size of a grain of rice, pour in 400.0 ml of 40% alcohol or good quality vodka, leave at room temperature in the dark, shaking the contents periodically for 3 weeks.
Drink according to special instructions, in accordance with the level of hormones.
How did you understand me, Malika?
See you in touch!

Is it possible to combine drugs such as Normocycle and Iodomarin with Cinquefoil root?

Hello!
Iodomarin and Cinquefoil root contain different forms of iodine, so you should not use them together without understanding the situation.
Drink Normotsikl and Iodomarin.
GOOD LUCK!

Good afternoon
Tests were taken for the hormones TSH, T3, T4, and the results were all normal. According to the results of an ultrasound, a large nodule was found in the right lobe of the thyroid gland, which occupies the entire lobe of the thyroid gland, causing a grade 2 goiter.
A biopsy of the node was performed and the results were benign. The doctor insists on complete removal of the thyroid gland, because... the node is too large - 3.5 cm and there is a cosmetic defect in the form of a goiter. No treatment prescribed. Deletion only.
Is it possible to use White Cinquefoil to make the knot resolve? I beg you to recommend something, because... doctors insist on surgery.
Thank you!

Hello!
But why do doctors insist on removing the thyroid gland if TG and antibodies to TPO are normal!? Maybe because it’s not often possible to get rid of knots quickly.
A decoction of Cinquefoil alba is used if TSH is not higher than 2, but preferably one and a half units. After each month of taking it, you need to take a break of 5 days and look at TSH, T4 free, T3 total. And the level of antibodies to TPO and TG is also very important. If TSH increases, cinquefoil is discontinued. And the collection will go together with her. If the level of antibodies is elevated, add 2-3 tbsp to the collection. Swamp duckweed.
1. Decoction of Cinquefoil root.
- 1 tbsp. of the root, crushed to the size of a grain of rice, pour 200 ml of boiling water into a thermos, leave for 8 hours (overnight), drink 2 tbsp. 4 times a day, 15 minutes before meals.
2. Collection of herbs.
Roots: Red brush - 1 des.l., Licorice - 1 tsp; European grasshopper - 1.5, Meadowsweet - 2, Tenacious bedstraw - 1, Tricolor violet - 2, Hill solyanka - 2.
Grind the grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, the roots to 3-5 mm - first mechanically to small pieces, then using a coffee grinder; mix evenly.
Take herbs without a dose indicated in tablespoons.
- 1 tbsp. pour 300.0 ml of cold drinking water over the mixture for an hour, then bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, for 15 minutes.
Cool, strain, squeeze and add to 300.0 ml.
Drink 100.0 ml three times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months.
3. Wobenzym, drink 4-5 tablets 4 times a day for a month.
4. Externally, goiter area.
Apply Endocrinol gel at night for a month and monitor the volume.
SUCCESS, Veronica and see you!

Hello, Yulia Evgenievna.

After a blood test for the hormone, I was diagnosed with thyrotoxicosis. Prescribed: tyrosol 10 ml, 3 times a day. My blood pressure began to spike and my pulse increased, and I became very irritable.

My tests: glucose - 7.08 (standard 3.9-6.4), total cholesterol - 3.56 (standard 3.63-5.20), free T3 - 10.02 (standard 1.8-4, 2), free T4 - 2.55 (standard 0.8-1.9), TSH - 0.010 (standard 0.4-4.0).

Hello, Sophia!

The question is not simple! If these hormones are obtained after taking tyrosol, it is too early to stop taking it. If - before taking, initial, you can GRADUALLY replace the third tablet with 5% tincture of Cinquefoil (- 20.0 g of root per 400.0 ml of vodka). Drink 30 drops three times a day and check the same hormones exactly 2 weeks later.

What to do with the third tablet - break off a piece of it with a needle every day (about 1/50th of it).

You may need more herbs.

If all this is troublesome for you, the endocrinologist himself will prescribe you titration of tyrosol, that is, gradual withdrawal.

Think!

All the best, Sophia, see you!

Good afternoon

Please help me understand my situation. My diagnosis: stage 2 duz, euthyroidism. The puncture showed that the formation was benign.

Hormones are normal: TSH - 1.7, T4 - 14.2. I take cinquefoil tincture, 30 drops 3 times a day. I drink for a month, take a week off. After the second course, I tested the hormones TSH - 0.96, T4 - 14.9, TPO antibodies - 0.5.

Tell me, please, can I drink cinquefoil tincture? Or something else to resolve knots?

Hello, Victoria!

Nodes do not dissolve so quickly. You can continue taking Cinquefoil alba, but breaks, as well as taking hormones every 1-2 months, are required. If T4 St. begins to decrease, this is a signal to stop taking the tincture and choose another remedy.

To speed up the process, add Wobenzym, 3-4 tablets, 4 times a day, and apply to the goiter - at night, for 1.5 months.

GOOD LUCK, get in touch!

Previously, I drank cinquefoil root tincture for 2 months, it got better, but the indicators remained the same. Now I have: TSH - 0; Free T3 - 23.39 (with the norm up to 5.7); Free T4 - 34.57 (with the norm being up to 19.5). I read that a decoction of Zyuznik and Cinquefoil helps. Please tell me in what proportion to drink them?

Hello, Marina!

There is a small group of thyreostatic herbs, European sage grass, Comfrey officinalis, Common cocklebur, White cinquefoil, etc.).

There is a huge group of herbs to help thyreostatics - hepatic, phytoestrogenic, sedative, etc.

From experience, I learned that leaving tyrosol with the support of herbs is most often difficult. T4 levels begin to surge, while TSH is delayed, which makes it difficult to select herbs and requires frequent monitoring of hormones.

But half the time everything goes like clockwork.

If you are ready to take a risk, I'm waiting!

See you later, Marina!

Hello, Lilia!

Pour a 50 gram glass of crushed Vitex fruits and 50.0 grams of dry Echinacea purpurea herb into 1 liter of vodka and leave for three weeks in a dark place, shaking occasionally. Strain and drink 1 tsp. two to three times a day, half an hour before meals. The course is 30 days and a week break, then conduct two more courses. In six months, again conduct three courses of recovery - if this is still relevant.

Drink 100.0 ml three times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months.

You may have to change the collection when you clarify your progesterone numbers.

Child. You can’t heal your son with White Cinquefoil - it lowers the T4 hormone.

To select herbs, you need its hormones - TSH, T4 free, T3 total, antibodies to TPO; weight, height, age, fact of taking thyroxine.

Husband. Based on the fact of occupational hazard, one can assume viscous sperm, an advantage for sedentary forms, and oligospermia.

Tests as of 07/09/18: TSH - 0.0103 (normal 0.3500-4.9400), T4 - 18.55 (normal 9-19.05), T3 - 5.54 (normal 2.63-5.70 ), antibodies to thyreglobulin - 28.08 (with a norm of up to 4), antibodies to thyreperexidase - 410.85 (with a norm of up to 5.61).

Ultrasound of the thyroid gland - everything is ok. Nothing found. The clinic, in the form of tachycardia, etc., is not yet available. But the symptoms are a lot of hair loss. D deficiency - I take Vigantol (7 drops, first month). Iron, zinc, female hormones are all normal, free testosterone is slightly increased.

But of course, I understand that my main cause of hair loss is the thyroid gland. I haven’t started taking hormone therapy yet (the doctor prescribed prednisolone, but I think I should go for another consultation - this particular drug has a lot of side effects).

Tell me, is there anything I can drink from herbs? And in general, is it possible to take a course without hormone therapy and if it doesn’t help, then start it? I understand that everything has side effects, but if possible, I would be glad to hear all your advice and professional opinion. I read that Wobenzym is good for reducing antibodies.

Grind the grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, the roots to 3-5 mm - first mechanically to small pieces, then using a coffee grinder; mix evenly.

The first control of TSH, T4 free, T3 total - exactly 2 weeks from the start of taking Cinquefoil alba and collecting.

But visit other doctors, just don’t delay! It’s literally a STEP to get to the disease clinic!

With best wishes for a successful choice, Lisa!

Hello, Yulia Evgenievna.

I really hope for your help in consulting on my issue. I am 66 years old. Diagnosis: multinodular conglomerate goiter. hyperplasia of the thyroid gland.

On October 15, 1993, resection of the right lobe of the thyroid gland and isthmus was performed regarding nodular nontoxic goiter. Histology dated October 18, 1993 - diagnosis: micromacrofollicular goiter. I took L thyroxine for 10 years. But then the endocrinologist stopped this drug, explaining that the hormones were normal.

But the condition of the thyroid gland over the past 5 years has only worsened every year, nodules and cysts are growing, and the thyroid gland itself has doubled in volume. V - 35.0 cc.

Ultrasound on May 24, 2018: the entire lower pole and middle part of the right lobe are filled with multiple nodes with a maximum size of 22.2x11.1 mm.

From the side of the heart - rhythm disturbance, extrasystole. Now I’m drinking White Potentilla tincture,” but am I doing the right thing? I beg you to help me. What should I drink, what herbs? How to properly treat the thyroid gland? I'm really looking forward to your consultation.

Thank you in advance.

Hello, Valentina!

I think we need to look at the entire thyroid panel - TSH, T4 st., T4 general; T3 general, T3 free; TG (especially important), antibodies to TPO. And be sure to donate blood for cholesterol and serum lipids. They are very dependent on the condition and hormones of the thyroid gland.

A month after starting to take White Potentilla, you need to change it to a herb that is more suitable for goiter. It’s called Goiter or Common Cocklebur and you need to drink it for a month, while simultaneously adding the main catalyst for the conversion of iodine into hormones - Selenium Active.

Pour 2 tablespoons of the herb into 0.5 liters of boiling water, leave in a thermos for 2 hours, strain. Drink the entire infusion in small sips throughout the day.

2. Selenium Active, tablets 300 mcg.

Take 2/3 tablets once a day, in the morning, with meals. Course - 1.5 months.

Hello Maria!

I have nothing against the prescribed treatment, everything is according to the rules.

But I completely disagree with him. Treatment should be directed to the cause. The cause of fibroids must be sought in hormones: FSH, LH, Prolactin, Progesterone, Estradiol; the cause of obesity is also (see insulin, sugar, leptins).

Now we need to be patient, systematically lose weight on the recommended diet and move more. White cinquefoil and Iodomarin do not combine, unfortunately. But after 3 months of taking Iodomarin, which, by the way, helps you lose weight, you need to repeat both hormones and ultrasound.

Just saturation with iodine prevents the formation of new nodes and somewhat reduces the old ones.

But you need to help the gland by taking enzymes like Wobenzym - 5 tablets 4 times a day, for a course of 2 months.

In addition, Maria, will help you.

Its beneficial effects on thyroid nodules and hair growth have been proven!

Rub it into your roots daily; and on the gland - apply without pressure, twice a day.

If you yourself want to restore to your previous weight, get examined and read about the Keto Diet.

Until the new connection, GOOD LUCK!

Dear Yulia Evgenievna!

My daughter: 38 years old, height 160 cm, weight 55 kg; He has been treated by an endocrinologist for more than 2 years. Namely, from April 2016 to the present.

And in April 2016, she discovered swelling on both sides of her neck, hoarseness appeared, and she turned to an endocrinologist.

Ultrasound on April 18, 2016: the thyroid gland has a typical location, is mobile when swallowing, the contours are smooth, clear, the structure is heterogeneously expressed, multiple hypoechoic areas (pseudonodules) of various sizes against the background of a general increase in the echogenicity of the gland.

In the right lobe: in the lower parts of the gland there is an isoechoic formation of 17*18 mm with a hypoechoic rim.

In the left lobe: hypoechoic formation - 10 mm, blood flow is increased throughout the gland.

Dimensions of the gland: right lobe - 31*37*52 mm (volume - 28.5 cm3), left lobe - 31*34*53 mm (volume - 26.7 cm3), isthmus - 9 mm, total volume - 55 cm3. Regional lymph nodes are located on the anterior surface of the neck, on both sides, hypoechoic up to 10-12 mm.

Hormones as of April 15, 2016: TSH - less than 0.001 (0.4-4.0), fT4 - 34 (9-19), fT3 - 25.2 (2.6-5.7), AT to rec TSH - 25.6 (0-1.0). Treatment: tyrosol - 5 mg, in childhood -

1 heaped tablespoon of chopped herbs Pour shikshi into an enamel mug with 500.0 ml of water, bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for exactly 7 minutes. Remove and cool. Do not remove the herb from the decoction; store the decoction in the refrigerator. It is convenient to pour a volume of about 150.0 ml in the morning, drink 2-3 sips at least 5-7 times a day.

Repeat daily until the decoction is gone. Then refill the same raw material with 500.0 ml of water and prepare in the same way. Prepare the broth in this way until it becomes pale (2-3 times), and only then use new raw materials. The course is 4 months without a break.

Grind the grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, the roots to 3-5 mm - first mechanically to small pieces, then using a coffee grinder; mix evenly.

Take herbs without a dose indicated in tablespoons.

1 tbsp. pour 300.0 ml of cold drinking water over the mixture for an hour, then bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, for 15 minutes.

Cool, strain, squeeze and add to 300.0 ml.

Drink 100.0 ml three times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months.

You will probably also need herbs with iodine. Depending on the function of the gland, it will be either White Cinquefoil or Common Cocklebur.

Then more severe paroxysmal symptoms began: a growing lump in the throat after eating, heaviness, it became difficult to breathe, the head was heavy and strange. I tried to relieve the attacks with Tavegil and calcium chloride. The distension was similar to internal edema, so it seemed. I passed the tests. The only bad results were: urine density - 1.004 g/ml (1.010-1.025); hematocrit - 45% (36.6-44.0); average Hb concentration in erythrocytes (MCHC) - 30.8 g/dl (31.8-34.7); leukocytes - 3.66 10*9/l. (4.49-12.68); neurophiles - 46.20% (42.90-74.30); eosinophils - 5.75% (0.2-5.3).

Ultrasound of the thyroid gland - normal, hormones too, only increased Anti-TPO>2000 IU/ml (appetite disappeared and after a couple of days I refused to eat at all, and when the urine stopped flowing I stopped drinking too. The attack of a growing lump in the throat and heaviness recurred already Against the backdrop of an empty stomach, my back on the right side began to ache sharply, at these moments the skin especially itched, my heartbeat quickened and my blood pressure increased.

I made an appointment with an endocrinologist and gastroenterologist, the appointment was only in three weeks. It was necessary to take something urgently or call an ambulance. I decided to try drinking Hofitol and already in the evening of the same day I began to urinate drop by drop and felt better. My daughter broke the bottle. In the morning I started drinking Flamin. Every day I felt better. Added to this Burdock root, string, violet, Licorice, Birch leaf. I started following diet No. 5, even though I always eat right. The symptoms went away and oh, miracle! My nose began to breathe and my sense of smell returned.

What should I do? I don't want to get stuck in the hospital. As for cold allergies, I don’t think so. Sometimes your nose can breathe better outdoors than indoors. In autumn and spring, the nose is completely stuffy, but other symptoms of heaviness of digestion also worsen.

Questions I want to ask:

1) Last year you advised me to make tubages. How often should they be done? I read on the Internet that you need to drink a choleretic drug and lie down with a heating pad for 2 hours on your right side. Do I understand correctly?

3) To prevent the outflow of bile, can I drink something from tinctures? I have dandelion roots, Solyanka, saussurea, corn silk and other herbs. Is it possible to brew them and how?

Thank you in advance!

Hello, dear Olya! How many years, how many winters!

But let's start not with the tubes, but with your blood - you were anemic and at the same time you were working on your thyroid gland. There is a risk of hypothyroidism ((.

The tubes will only bring benefits, but you can lie down without a heating pad, once a week, on a day off.

1.1. Anti-prasitic scheme.

But the tests so far are as follows: TSH - 0.48 (0.27-4), T4 and T3 are normal, in the middle of the values, I can’t find the form, AT to TPO - 500.

The thyroid gland on the right side is slightly enlarged (grade 1). BUT! My pulse is about 90, my blood pressure is 127 over 90, while my usual is 115 over 75. The temperature is 36.9-37, but the worst thing is that I am very suspicious. And when I saw another TSH, which dropped from 0.53 to 0.48 in a month, it all started for me. - 2, European beetroot - 1, Melilot officinalis - 2, blood-red hawthorn flowers - 2.

Grind the grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, the roots to 3-5 mm - first mechanically to small pieces, then using a coffee grinder; mix evenly.

Take herbs without a dose indicated in tablespoons.

1 tbsp. pour 300.0 ml of cold drinking water over the mixture for an hour, then bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, for 15 minutes.

Cool, strain, squeeze and add to 300.0 ml.

Drink 100.0 ml three times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months. Control of TG, T3 st., T3 general - exactly 3 weeks from the start of using the regimen.

2. Cinquefoil decoction, the main remedy.

1 tbsp. of the root, crushed to the size of a rice grain, pour 200.0 ml of boiling water into a thermos, leave for 8 hours (overnight), drink 1-2 tbsp. 3-4 times a day, 15 minutes before meals. The course is exactly 3 weeks, control of these hormones.
