: I'm a guy and noticed that since I started taking thyroid medication (first synthroid for a month, then armour) that my sex drive is much lower. Or is this a symptom of hypothyroidism?

: Thanks,

Hi BB, It's generally concidered a symptom of hypothyroidism. How long have you been on Armour? If it hasn't been very long, give it sometime to work. It takes a while to heal everything that having a low functioning thyroid has done to your body. The longer that you were hypothyroid before starting thyroid hormone the longer it takes for all the damage to heal.
Are some of any of your other symptoms starting to dissipate yet?
