Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking!

Feeling cold is one of the most common symptoms of hypothyroidism.

You've mentioned that you are taking treatment for thyroid pathologies but probably the dose needs further modifications.

Please check your thyroid hormones (TSH, Ft4, and Ft3) and report the actual dose of thyroid medicine you are taking.

Please attach them and it'll be a pleasure to help you further regarding the treatment.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Beast wishes,
Dr.Mirjeta
