Dear Ajay,
Have you seen any doctor before to think that you might have Thyroid disorders.
It us dangerous for you to take over the counter medicines without proper diagnosis.
You have to have the necessary tests done and then only you can take the medicines if it is Thyroid.
Yours may be a simple case of indigestion or heartburn or something like that.
I can also give you link for the site where you can see all about Thyroid problems and the symptoms concerned with it.
http://herbalcareshop.com/ThyroidDisease/
http://www.hormone.org/Thyroid/
you can see the Homeo medicines and the way this can be treated by Homeopathy
in the below mentioned sites.

So without consulting physicians do not decide on anything. All the best

The function of the thyroid gland is to regulates and controls the speed of the body's metabolism converting the food into usable energy.
And any problem in thyroid will lead to lack of energy in the body.
Common symptoms of thyroid disorder are weakness,weight gain,depression, nervousness,disturbed menstural periods in women and lower immunity.
Low sodium diet and diet in high sugar can be the cause of thyroid problem.
Vitamin Bcomplex especially B6 and B12 helps a lot in improving
thyroid disorder.
Regards,
Vivek.

Hi friend,
The main symptoms of thyroid are over weight, rough skin, hair fall. Whether you have lost your weight or gained your weight recently? If so, then you must get the tests done which will give you clear picture of thyroid. If you go for blood test (T3,T4, TSH) then you can know whether you are a thyroid patient or not ? But I too recommend you to consult a Endocrinologist and then go for blood test and take the medicine as per the doctors advice. Don't take your own medicines.

Hi,
The best way to self diagnose Hypothyroidism is unusual gain of weight despite poor eating habits and Hyperthyroidism is unusual loss of weight despite good eating habits. If this is noted please take the help of an endocrinologist.
