Can dizziness/lightheadedness be caused by hypothyroidism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Dizziness/lightheadedness is very non-specific and can be seen in almost any disease and can be just be the manifestation of benign positional vertigo. Hypothyroidism normally doesn't present with that.
