Does anyone who has Hypothyroidism get breakouts of red puss filled spots on your head, face, chest and stomach? I am on 125 mg of Levothyroxine, could this be related to Hypo or something else?
Many Thanks

what brand of levothyroxine are you taking? Are you on two different brands for 100 and 25mcgm? See posts on here about Teva levothyroxine!
I was riddled with acne during adolescence, but it spread all over during the subsequent 20 years on levo. Spots and boils are a result of lowered immunity in untreated or inadequately treated hypothyroidism. They can also occur with diabetes (same reason).
Frequent B12 shots for PA or related malabsorption conditions can cause acne, which I have once again now I'm self-treating for PA, but this is not really a cause for concern.
Do you have any recent thyroid function test results (with reference ranges), because it's difficult to comment further without knowing more?
Not what you're looking for?
