Possibly but: if her thyroid function has been normalized, she is not any less safe than any other person. However uncorrected low thyroid function may lead to drowsiness and fatigue and too much thyroid may cause anxiety and tremors.

Do not worry: As long as the thyroid problem is under control, daily travel is safe. However, it is important that the thyroid issue is addressed by a qualified physician, and is monitored periodically.

What kind of problem: If she is hypothyroid, medication should take care of that and travel should not be an issue. If she is hyperthyroid, that may require more monitoring. She needs to follow the instructions of her doctor and take her medication as prescribed. Wish you and your wife good health!
