Weight gain is a symptom of hypothyroid (underactive thyroid), however, if you do not have hypothyroidism you should not use thyroid hormones to speed up your metabolism. This will cause hyperthyroid and have serious side effects which could lead to death. If you suspect you are overweight because of an underactive thyroid you need to ask your doctor to have your tsh levels checked AND your free t3, free t4 checked. If you want to support your thyroid naturally you could try incorporating more iodine and selenium rich foods into your diet. These minerals are needed for your thyroid to produce the thyroid hormones.
Although an underactive thyroid might contribute to weight gain, it isn't the soul contributor to weight gain. For those living with hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid gland) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis (a thyroid autoimmune condition that causes the thyroid gland to not produce enough thyroid hormones), thyroid patients may experience improvements with symptoms like weight gain once their thyroid condition is monitored and well-managed.
