It’s estimated that as many as 15 million Americans may be hypothyroid, the majority of them undiagnosed.
If you have hypothyroidism, your thyroid fails to produce suffix cient levels of the thyroid hormones needed by your body. This slows down a variety of bodily functions, as well as your metaboUsm. The risk of developing hypothyroidism is greatest if

Could You Have an Undiagnosed Thyroid Condition?

* An autoimmune disease (Hashimoto’s disease) has caused your immune system to attack your thyroid, making it unable to produce sufficient hormone amounts.
* You’ve had radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment for your overactive thyroid, which has made all or part of your thyroid unable to produce hormone.
* You have a goiter or thyroid nodule (s) that is interfering with your gland’s ability to produce hormone.
* You’ve had surgery for goiter, nodules, Hashimoto’s disease, or cancer, and all or part of your thyroid has been removed.
* You’ve been hypothyroid since birth. A small percentage of people experience this condition, known as congenital hypothyroidism, which results from a missing or malformed thyroid gland.
Ultimately, however your thyroid problem started, if your thyroid is now unable to produce sufficient thyroid hormone, or if you don’t have a thyroid at all, you are considered hypothyroid and you’d better start using Synthroid right now.
