Weight gain alone may not be a sign, but combined with increased appetite, high cholesterol, and other proven triggers, is an indication of a thyroid problem. The lack of hormones tends to provoke a low metabolic rate and decreased energy burning. The food you consume is going to be slowly digested and implanted as body fat. Even if you start working out, the scale will be your worst enemy. So, don’t wait, do the thyroid blood test and stabilize the condition. Many prescription medications do an awesome job of replacing the missing hormone and will have you back on track.
