Possible Symptoms of Hypothyroidism

If you are gaining weight unusually (5-10 pounds), it's possible you may be suffering from hypothyroidism (under-active thyroid gland). Although only about 4 percent of the population suffers from this condition, many of these cases remain undetected and therefore untreated.

Here are a list of common symptoms of hypothyroidism. As a rule of thumb, if you suffer from three or more of these symptoms, ask your doctor for a simple blood test.

1. Weight gain.
2. Fatigue.
3. Dry/coarse skin and/or puffy facial appearance.
4. Slowed speech.
5. Weakness.
6. Unusual slowness in adding up numbers.
7. Constipation.
8. Loss of appetite.
9. Hearing impairment.
10. Unusual sensitivity to the cold.
