Explanation

Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone, leading to a slowing down of the body's metabolic processes. The symptoms of hypothyroidism can vary, but commonly include fatigue, lethargy, weight gain, and decreased appetite or anorexia. However, diarrhoea is not a symptom of hypothyroidism. In fact, hypothyroidism is more commonly associated with constipation due to the slowing of the digestive system. Other symptoms of hypothyroidism can include dry skin, hair loss, cold intolerance, and depression.
