What causes hypothyroidism? I am 21 years old, made a terrible decision of living at my relatives place for my graduation. I regretted the decision very soon and felt socially awkward and isolated which further made the stay unhappy and stressful! I also was affected by dengue during the stay! The test was taken post that. What causes it?
