How do you cure an underactive thyroid?

This is a topic that I am well familiar with. I was diagnosed with underactive thyroid and it is important to follow the doctors orders on how to control it. Underactive thyroid isn't curable, however, it can be controlled by a pill that the doctor will prescribe for you. If it is not taken care of your metabolism will continue to slow down and therefore making it harder for a person to loose weight. For me I get tired easily so it is very important I take my medicine as prescribed. As with anything, it is most important to exercise regularly and change your eating habits. If you think you may have underactive thyroid, talk to your doctor. They will run some tests and can answer any questions you may have.
