I unerstand you might want to intereact with people who have tried it, but there have been many posts in the past here. This link takes you to search results for "LDN" - there might be many more if you also search for "naltrexone":

True, it is also used for Chronic Pain. But take a look at the preview of "The LDN Book" , chapter 5 where it speaks all about using LDN for thyroid issues.

I am hypothyroid and was taking LDN for 9 months, titrated up to 4.5mg/day, I did not see any benefit.

Oh yes! I have hypothyroidism and 2 years ago my dr started me in Ldn 4.5 mg. My antibodies lowered by almost 100 points!!! I’m told the antibodies are a form of inflammation. I also sleep better and really enjoy my dreams more. It’s a plus for me
