Will Intake Of Synthorid Or Loestrin Affect Having Underactive Thyroid?
I'm 41 great health up until this April. I was finally told I had underactive thyroids.A month or two ago they went normal without meds. I was told that I have 3 nodeuls on the right side.So the doc want me to take synthroid but I feel fine and she said that the meds. will not shrink the nodeuls. So why take the meds? My obgyn gave me Loestrin 24 fe. Will this affect my thyroids?

Hi
Your doctor is better judge considering all your history, examination and investigations. It would be prudent if you have provided the same to us as well. Loestrin further impairs thyroid function. You need to take the endocrinologist advice
