  1. Better if she sees a doctor. If she is hungry she should be hyperthyroid and in that condition, she will not gain weight. Thyroid disorders are not contagious, but the fears and anxieties are, like in your case.

  2. i’ve had hypo thyroid for 15 years…there is hypo (low or non-working thyroid) meaning you’d gain weight and there is hyper (over-active) meaning you’d lose weight.

    i take synthroid everyday and it helps keep the thyroid at an even keel.

    is not contagious at all but is hereditary.

    hope this helps.

  3. No it is not contagious. It may be inheirted though.
    many women have thyroid problems , less men.
    She needs to see a dr. and have a blood test taken. This is easily diganosed and not a problem to control with the proper meds.
    Weight gain and tiredness go along with thyroid disease that is not treated. Good luck
