Dear ma'm, hi! thyroid disorders are usually auto immune. so auto antibodies are formed which cause thyroid enlargement, nodular degeneration. if you had her thyroid removed, she will require replacement for life. usually thyroid deficiency is not responsible for skin manifestations other than myxedema. regards!
