I have extremely dry skin year round. any homemade remedies out there that'll help?

Hypothyroidism?: There's no magic for dry skin (not due to disease), but some things may help: Shower less frequently (since the soap and water remove oils from the skin). A cheap moisturizing lotion relieves symptoms for many people. Hypothyroidism can cause depression and dry skin. It can be diagnosed with a simple blood test. Discuss that with your doctor.
