Is nausea a symptom of under active thyroid?

Answer 1

I can't detect any relationship between these two conditions. First of all you may perform a blood test for thyroid. If you are already aware that you have a hypothyroidism condition, the best that you can do is to consult an endocrinologist, or a medical doctor specialized on the digestive system.

For your reference, see below the symptoms associated to hypothyroidism:

Early

Cold intolerance, increased sensitivity to cold

Constipation

Weight gain and water retention

Bradycardia (low heart rate - fewer than sixty beats per minute)

Fatigue

Decreased sweating

Muscle cramps and joint pain

Dry, itchy skin

Thin, brittle fingernails

Rapid thoughts

Depression

Poor muscle tone (muscle hypotonia)

Female infertility, any kind of problems with menstrual cycles

Hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea

Elevated serum cholesterol

Late

Goiter

Slow speech and a hoarse, breaking voice - deepening of the voice can also be noticed, caused by Reinke's Edema.

Dry puffy skin, especially on the face

Thinning of the outer third of the eyebrows (sign of Hertoghe)

Abnormal menstrual cycles

Low basal body temperature

Thyroid-Related Depression

Uncommon

Impaired memory

Impaired cognitive function (brain fog) and inattentiveness.

A slow heart rate with ECG changes including low voltage signals. Diminished cardiac output and decreased contractility

Reactive (or post-prandial) hypoglycemia

Sluggish reflexes

Hair loss

Anemia caused by impaired haemoglobin synthesis (decreased EPO levels), impaired intestinal iron and folate absorption or B12 deficiency from pernicious anemia

Difficulty swallowing

Shortness of breath with a shallow and slow respiratory pattern

Increased need for sleep

Irritability and mood instability

Yellowing of the skin due to impaired conversion of beta-carotene to vitamin A (carotoderma)

Impaired renal function with decreased glomerular filtration rate

Acute psychosis (myxedema madness) (a rare presentation of hypothyroidism)

Decreased libido in men due to impairment of testicular testosterone synthesis

Decreased sense of taste and smell (anosmia)

Puffy face, hands and feet (late, less common symptoms)

Gynecomastia

Deafness

Enlarged tongue

Answer 2

Yes, it is possible for nausea to be a symptom of an under-active, or hypOthyroid. If you think your thyroid may be dysfunctional, please seek the help of an endocrinologist who specializes in thyroid treatment and diagnosis, or a qualified, knowledgeable physician.

Answer 3

Mostly not.

Generally associated with weight gain, easy fatigability, lethargy, increased sleep, increased hairfall, dry skin and a few others.

Answer 4

Yes, it can be a symptom of hypothyroidism. This is especially true if it's Hashimoto's. Your body may not be making enough red blood cells.
