More Info

How does the thyroid affect weight loss?

The thyroid plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism. If the thyroid is underactive (hypothyroidism), it can slow down metabolism and make it harder to lose weight. On the other hand, an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) can speed up metabolism, leading to weight loss despite increased appetite.
