I read here of people trying armour???? Trying new diets etc and I haven't a clue could someone help ? Thank you

I was diag underactive thyroid 20 years ago and developed a goitre and was then diagnosed with Hashimotos . Have since had tt .

So do I still have Hashimotos? Or underactive thyroid? And what was the benefit of tt apart from the removal of goitre?
