Doctor's answer:

You have hypothyroidism, which indicates that your thyroid function is reduced. The hormones generated and excreted cannot meet the body's normal metabolic needs, which can lead to many symptoms such as poor appetite, fatigue, and aversion to cold. This is a controllable disease. It is recommended to consult the endocrinology department of your hospital for follow-up. You need to take thyroid hormone-decomposing medication under the guidance of a doctor. Do not use medicine randomly. Regularly re-examine your thyroid function to keep the hormones within the normal range.
