Hi ladies I just wanted too see if anyone has had this issue where one side of thyroid looks swollen no lumps just a whole side it doesn't hurt just looks weird.. I have been a synthroid for 10 years but I've never gone back to doctors since then, I'm 47 and weird stuff starting happening last year and now I'm 3 months no period, so strange. Does anyone think its peri related? I'd love to hear if anyones thyroid swells up on one side..thanks

    Hi Angela

    Thyroid and hormones go hand in hand as it's all the endocrine system. With overactive graves or hashimotos, you do need to get to the doctor and get it treated. It can do some damage( trust me). Good luck, and get to the doc xx
