The thyroid gland is a small but essential part of the body, regulating critical functions like energy levels, metabolism, and mood. A thyroid imbalance can cause fatigue, weight changes, mood swings, heart issues, and other health complications.
At National Wellness Group in Naples, Dr. Yuabova Marina, DNP, FNP, uses an integrative approach to address thyroid health based on your individual needs. She conducts a thorough health assessment to pinpoint the root causes of your symptoms and creates a functional treatment plan to restore your well-being.

Symptoms of Thyroid
Dysfunction
Your thyroid is responsible for producing hormones like thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which help regulate critical functions including metabolism, energy, heart rate, digestion, and cognitive performance. These hormones also affect body temperature and menstrual cycles. When there’s an imbalance in thyroid hormone levels, it can lead to various health challenges, negatively impacting your day-to-day life.

Risk Factors For Developing Thyroid Issues
There are several risk factors that can lead to thyroid and hormone imbalances. Older individuals, particularly women, have an increased likelihood of developing thyroid disorders such as Hashimoto’s and Grave’s disease. A family history of thyroid problems, along with other autoimmune diseases, can further increase the risk. Smoking and chronic stress can also contribute to thyroid dysfunction. Additionally, women who are recently postpartum may develop temporary thyroid dysfunction known as postpartum thyroiditis.
What To Expect with Thyroid Treatment at National Wellness Group in Naples
At your first appointment, a comprehensive evaluation will be conducted to assess your current health and address any symptoms you’re experiencing. Dr. Yuabova begins by gathering information about your lifestyle, medical history, and current symptoms. Thyroid hormone testing through a blood sample will then be performed to identify any imbalances.
After discovering the underlying cause of your symptoms, Dr. Yuabova will suggest hormone therapies and other substances to regulate your thyroid hormones.
Dr. Yuabova also integrates functional medicine with quantum energy and diagnostics, utilizing them as healing tools to restore balance.
I’ve been working with Dr. Yuabova for nearly 2 years and highly recommend working with her. My health issue was resolved about a year after working with her, and I continue to see her to maintain my mental and physical health. She is thoughtful, caring, and clear. Most importantly, she listens and identifies the core of the issue. She is great to work with- in addition to resolving the issue I initially started with, she has resolved quite a few little things that I typically don’t ask a doctor about. I feel much more confident about my health and life in general after working with her. Can’t give a high enough recommendation!
