My mom is a doctor and she suspects i might have a thyroid gland disorder. But with school and other things going on, we still haven’t had the chance to go to the hospital and get tested. So, im just wondering whether im just fat (altough i don’t know why since i exercise a lot and don’t really eat that much) or is it possible that the weight gain isn’t my fault and could be an effect of the thyroid gland disorder? 
( Plz help…

Ya for example an experiment animal, we remove the thyroid gland. My "theory" is that, if TRH is produced from Hypothalamus and it makes the Hypofize (sorry if I spelled wrong in my language) produce TSH, that make Thyroid produce T3 and T4, but T3 and T4 influence in increase or decrease of TRH, then if we remove thyroid, the levels of TRH should be decreased until stopped. Which is the right answer?

My doctor recommends that I have my thyroid gland removed because of a benign but large cold nodule.

I am considering acupuncture for weight loss. I am hypothyroid and struggle constantly. Although I am on medication, I’m rarely regulated. Would acupuncture work?
I just had an ultrasound done today and my thyroid gland is 4.3cm. Is this normal or is it a little enlarged?
After my miscarriage (3 mos. pregnant) I started to lose weight for what seemed like no reason. Then I got pregnant again and gained weight like normal, carried the baby to term and now my baby is 14 mos. and my weight is lower than ever! (93 lbs)- I cant’ seem to gain. I went to a doctor who specialized in thryoid since my mom has this but she gains weight. He said in a small percentage of people who have underactive thyroid there is weightloss. I’m just wondering how can this be true and if anyone has ever heard of this…
