A member asked:
How is estrogen and progesterone affected by hypothyroidism in women?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unpredictable: There may be decreased secretion and decreased metabolism, but in general the levels are somewhat abnormal. Luckily hypothyroidism is easily treated by brand name T4 replacement. See your doctor.
