I have this too. The endocrinologist has sent me for tests on my adrenals because of it. I hope it's just related to the thyroxine though, but they didn't say it would be so might be worth you going to get checked out

I'm not going through menopause though so maybe it's related to that?

I think people are going to need a lot more detail than that to be able to help you. :)

When did you start levo?

How much are you taking?

Do you have any labs to share with us? If so, post them in a new question, with the ranges.

Have you had your antibodies tested?

Have you had your vit D, vit B12, folate and ferritin tested? It could be low nutrients.

All the details are important to paint the whole picture.
