Thank you for your question about thyroid conditions on Ask a Question e-reference service. AAQ is a service for Albertans, or for those with questions about Ablerta. If time permits, we do assist with other queries.

Providing medical advice is beyond the mandate of AAQ, however, we can provide information. For more information on hypothyroidism, see:
