Abstract
Congenital hypothyroidism (CHT) is a condition that, if left untreated, has severe consequences. In this case we report the resolution of hypothyroidism in a newborn with nutritional and alternative treatments. In evidence-based medicine, clinical expertise, research, and patient preference are an important triad used to make clinical decisions; in this case the patient's parents preferred to begin with nutritional and alternative treatments.
