Unlikely: Underactive thyroid often an autoimmune process. Once it is destroyed it can't recover. The good news is that thyroid hormone can be easily and safely replaced with one pill daily. Once regulated properly. Your body will respond to it just as if the hormone were your own. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
