A member asked:
What is the role of thyroxine in bone development?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bone: Too much thyroxine may have a bad effect on your bone. If you have not had a bone bone density test you should have one now. You should also politely ask what training the bone density tech has had. Regrettably too few are properly trained.
