Hi,
I have gone carefully through your concern. The most common cause of under active thyroid or hypothyroidism, is Hashimoto thyroiditis, a pathology with autoimmune origin. It is chronic and the treatment with Levothyroxine (Eltroxin) is long life.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind regards,
Dr. Mirjeta
