Hypothyroidism is treated by replacing the deficient thyroid hormone with one of several oral medications. If untreated, hypothyroidism eventually can cause anemia, low body temperature and heart failure. These may progress to confusion and even difficulty breathing. These symptoms sound scary, and hypothyroidism can be serious, but many times it takes a milder form. Consult your doctor more about your symptoms and his or her choice of treatment.
Hypothyroidism is very manageable.
