Possibly: This is one of those problems where a visit to your doctor is necessary to figure out what's going on. Only after a thorough evaluation, including examination and possibly labs and other tests, can your doctor correctly diagnose you and treat you effectively.

Thryoid&constipation: Hypothyroidisnm per se can cause constiaption. If you are newly diagnosed, then maybe u need fine tuning of the medication dosing. Speak to your docotr about the cosntipation.
