Weight gain and feeling cold throughout the winter are inevitable, but experts say that these may be signs of the presence of what they describe as an “invisible disease condition.”
The presence of these symptoms, accompanied by a state of depression and fatigue, might be an indication of hypothyroidism, where it does not produce enough hormones.
An NHS spokesperson said: “The symptoms of hypothyroidism are often similar to those of other conditions, and they usually develop slowly, so you may not notice them for years.”
Without treatment, the condition can increase the risk of heart disease because low levels of thyroid hormone can increase cholesterol levels in the blood.
Hypothyroidism can also lead to its enlargement.
If left untreated during pregnancy, it can increase the risk of preeclampsia, anemia in the mother, and premature birth.
The only accurate way to know if you have a thyroid problem is to have a blood test that checks hormone levels.
Symptoms of hypothyroidism also include:
- holding.
- Slow movements.
- Muscle pain.
- Dry skin.
- Pain, numbness and tingling sensation in the hand and fingers.
