Re: Possible Hypothyroidism

Sounds like thyroid...I suspect you are IO deficient...start supplementing but start out slow with it. I am female and I had similar symptoms minus the man stuff, very thin, hard to gain weight etc. and they never suspected I would be hypo thyroid..always looking for the overweight you know...anyhow, you probably are sub clinical, meaning they will find you normal in the range of having a healthy thyroid so it's probably kind of futile to go that route, however, on the other hand, there are some good doctors who might look beyond and do better testing than the old outdated tsh.

If I were you I would definitely start IO therapy asap. jmo from my experience. It might be a thought to see if they will do an anti tpo to see if you have the auto immune..that's what I have, antibody against the thyroid....going off gluten COMPLETELY brings down the antibody significantly. Hope this helps you and you find some answers.
