Does Thyroid Medication Cause Raspy Voice?

Someone who is taking thyroid medication asked me Does the medication affect your voice adversely? The man said he was told that it is supposed to make his voice better. He talks very softly and has a raspy voice. My email address: YYYY@YYYY

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I understand your point. Thyroid medication does not, per se, cause voice changes, rather, a problem with the thyroid gland, such a low functioning thyroid, an enlarged thyroid or a nodule in the gland can cause a hoarse and raspy voice.

I hope this answers your question.
Wishing you all the best
