HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if you do not have any abdomen symptoms then it is nothing to worry about the color and consistency of the stool because it is all depends upon the diet taken, neither it is anything to do with the smoking, it is not like that if the quit the smoking causing the color change of stool even not due to the thyroid dysfunction, hope this information helps.
