hey guys. I just got blood drawn today to see if maybe I have a thyroid problem. I think i might because 1. as hard as I try, I can't lose ANY weight, and if I overeat just a little bit I gain like 2 pounds 2. I haven't gotten my period in over a year (people with slow thyroids have irregular periods) and 3. I'm cold ALL of the time. But I don't have brittle hair or nails, my family doesn't have a history of thyroid problems, I don't get headaches, I'm not extremely tired, and I don't have blindspots, and all of those are also symptoms of a slow thyroid problem. Does anyone have a slow thyroid, and if so, what were your symptoms, did they give you medicine, and did it help you lose weight?

you can do research on the internet for thyroid prevention and so on. There are many foods and snaks (like light popcorn) that can help bump up your thyroids. And there are lots of exercises that will also help... just do your research on google.com or yahoo. you'll find what you need
