The hormone whose production is inadequate in myxedema is thyroid hormone, specifically thyroxine (T4). Myxedema is a severe form of hypothyroidism, which occurs when the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone. This leads to a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, and dry skin.
