A member asked:
Could my mild hypothyroidism have caused the 9 days of spotting that replaced my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypothyroidism: Untreated hypothyroidism more often causes a heavier period , not a lighter one. Perhaps you are pregnant and that is why you are fatigued. In any case you should see your doctor about the hypothyroid situation.
