A member asked:
If my hypothyroidism is well controlled with synthroid, am i still at higher risk for heart vascular disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If your hypothyroidism was treated appropriately early in its onset I feel your risk for cardiovascular disease is no more than occurs in people without hypothyroidism.
