if you don't have a thyroid, or you have a thyroid but it is not functioning as it should to produce enough thyroid hormone, then you are hypothyroid.
The purpose of thyroid hormone is to deliver oxygen and energy to cells, tissues, glands, and organs throughout the body. The human body needs thyroid hormone in order to survive and function.
When you don't have enough thyroid hormone, many of your body processes can slow down, and you may experience a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, weight gain, depression, slow thinking, swelling and puffiness, aches and pains, constipation, among others.
If someone doesn't have their thyroid gland, they will experience symptoms that will affect quality of life. That person will also need to take thyroid hormone replacement therapy, as prescribed by a doctor, in order to manage their hypothyroid state. Symptoms of hypothyroidism include feeling tired, fatigued, weight gain, constipation, muscle aches, reduced concentration, depression to name a few.
