Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Jaquelyn, Are you indicating that hypothyroidism may cause motility issues? So, then if hypothyroidism is present and motility issues are a problem, then treating the hypothyroidism may help the motility? Have you seen motility issues get better with things like Armour Thyroid? Obviously I am interested.
