I have not seen it myself, but it is the belief of some people in natural health that it can be a trigger through molecular mimicry. Although, I have been looking for studies on it. (I was looking for such studies, when I found this question). It may be that such studies have not been done, but that doesn't mean practitioners clinical experience is useless. I would add, that the triggering of auto-immune disease through molecular mimicry in general is more established (at least in research, although conventional medicine doesn't care about it now). Poor GI health, IBS, dysbisosis and low secretory IgA is common in auto-immune disease and should be corrected as a possible underlining trigger. If non-ai hypothyroidism, this should still be corrected as a stress on the body. Either case, yes, it may be implicated, as the body may adapt to increase stress by lowering metabolic rate (and hence - thyroid hormone).
