What causes hypothyroidism?

Hypothyroidism is a form of hormonal imbalance ; in this case the thyroid gland is under-productive. Your doctor will check for a hormone deficiency before beginning any treatment.

What are the risks of untreated hypothyroidism?

If left untreated, hypothyroidism can lead to myxedema, a condition that causes tissues to swell, increases fluid around the lungs and heart, and slows down muscle reflexes. A myxedema coma may cause you to lose consciousness, experience trouble breathing, and can potentially lead to heart failure. Hypothyroidism can also cause mental health issues like depression and slowed mental functioning.
