what are signs or symptoms of a thyroid problem or disorder?
Ariah asked:
Hello, I have not had mine checked yet, but one of my doctors (for anxiety) told me to because I have anxiety and night sweats. I am in the process of finding a doctor to do blood work for me to get it checked. In the meantime though, can you tell me what other signs or symptoms are associated with thyroid?

P.S.. I am 27 year old female, if that makes a difference.

Underactive thyroid: Sleeping a lot, cold, putting on weight. This is what I have had for 33 years. Medication ends all of the above.
Overactive I’m not sure maybe someone else will answer that for you.
Insomnia
heat intolerance
rage
heart palpitations
tachycardia
excessive tiredness, weight gain, cold extremities (hands, feet)
for years i had those symptoms and my thyroid tests only came back ’slightly high’ – each dr did not put me on medication
finally i found 1 dr who did – my symptoms went away
