Can hypothyroid problems cause a child to do badly in school?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely: Thyroid hormone is very important for the development of the child, both physically and mentally. If you suspect hypothyroidism in your child, bring him/her to the pediatrician to have a blood draw. Treat it if hypothyroidism is confirmed.
