11. Menstrual imbalances
In conformity with the Society of Menstrual Cycle Research, it has been found that hypothyroidism can cause issues when it comes to the menstrual cycle. That is because it affects the way other hormones involved in menstruation are functioning, such as damaging the detoxification of estrogen and limiting the amount of globulin.
12. Goiter
Goiter is the name of an irregular growth of the thyroid gland and it can be seen as inflammation at the base of the neck. There are also other symptoms that can be linked to goiter, such as hoarseness, coughing, and difficulties swallowing and breathing.
Besides that, there are other more severe problems that can result in goiters, such as iodine deficiency and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, which is an autoimmune disease that destroys the thyroid gland and stops it from producing a sufficient amount of hormones.

The article on 12 signs you might have Hypothyroidism is very informative. Thank you.
I would like more articles on Hypothyroidism as I have the disease, and I need to understand the disease better.
My GP had never explained hypothyroid to me. I was losing hair, putting on weight and feeling tired all the time and my GP never suggested it. It was s friend said I might have it so i asked for a test which was positive so I was put on 100g thyroxine . I’m still losing hair and can’t lose weight and am tired all the time. I think I’m tested annually but don’t know why I’m still feeling so awful. Is there any other treatment other than thyroxine,? I’m getting so depressed by this…

I’m going through the same thing, hair loss, weight gain, and complete exhaustion. I too am on 100g thyroxine. I’d love to find out what else I can do besides just taking a pill every morning.
Try the more expensive Synthroid if your insurance can cover some or all of it. Many sufferers say this brand name is distinctly better- I know it is for me after trying both at different times. Good luck with any other adjustments you can ask more about.
