What is a hypoactive thyroid and how do they treat it?



Answer:
It means that your thyroid is not working properly. I was diagnosed this year. I'm on a medication that I'll probably have to take for the rest of my life - but it's inexpensive and has no side effects. To answer your first question, it's complicated - it would probably help if you read the article in wikipedia. Just type in "hypothyroidism" in the search box. Good luck!
A hypoactive thyroid is not producing enough thyroid hormone. You treat it by taking prescription replacement thyroid hormones.
