Can hypothyroidism be cured with exercise?

Patient's question:

My father has hypothyroidism. Can active hypothyroidism be treated? What should I pay attention to after getting this disease?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, first, hypothyroidism is caused by the decline in thyroid function, leading to an increase in the release of thyroid hormones. Generally, it is difficult to stabilize this condition through exercise, so treatment can only be achieved through external digestion of levothyroxine. At the same time, it is recommended that patients monitor thyroid function data periodically while taking thyroid hormones. Additionally, patients should pay close attention to rest and avoid overexertion.
