Hypothyroid Question
| Sun, 06-10-2007 - 4:23pm |
Hi!!!! I was diagnosed this past Feb. with hypothyroidism during a routine checkup. (I had no symptoms) I started taking 50MCG of Levothyroxine shortly after after. My question is...Has anyone noticed an improvement in their skin and nails after taking the medicine? I have had no breakouts and my nails are growing better than they ever have in my entire life! I read that not producing enough thyroid hormone could effect your hair...but does it effect nails and skin too? Just curious.
Thanks,
Christine
