My 4year old has congrntial hypothyroidism and has been treated since birth he has a slow bowel is this normal with his condition?

Not with treatment: Proper treatment of hypothyroidism with supplemental hormone corrects any symptoms that would otherwise be related. If his follow up TSH studies show he is well regulated, his constipation is from something else.
