Early menopause and hashimotos

I have just come from an appointment with an NHS gynecology consultant who confirmed my Premature Ovarian Insufficiency diagnosis AND that as I have Hashimoto's then it is almost certain my POI is autoimmune.

I think I just wanted to post because even having my thyroid levels ok I was still desperately struggling with symptoms and finding no answers.

POI is a comorbidity of Hashimotos as is type 1 diabetes so if you're in you 30's and still struggling with thyroid symptoms maybe consider POI.

Much love,

Witchy 🧡
