Could I have ?

From what I am describing does it sound like I could have something wrong with my thyroid ? I am a 23 year old female who has thinning hair on my head, facial hair like a mans, menstrual problems, overweight, sluggish at times, chicken like skin on my legs. Does anyone else have the same descriptions as myself ?

Have they checked you for PCOS?  It sounds like common symptoms of that too.  Just an idea outside the thyroid box.  :)  Hope you get figured out, none of it is fun. ;(  GOOD LUCK~

Thyroid problems can cause a lot of symptoms, but the only way for you to truly know is to visit your doctor and have them test your blood.
