Yes, it is true that the science has not found any drugs or ways to get rid of hypothyroidism. However there is no need to get crestfallen as there are certain ways through which you can minimize it.

The first and the foremost thing that you would have to focus upon is your diet. Make sure that your daily food must have a rich amount of anti oxidants and there should be iodine present in it. As these ingredients produce hormones, it would not allow the gland to grow big. Certain foods that you should avoid are milk, peanuts, broccoli etc.

There is a drug available in the form of pills called Thyromine that you can take twice a day for up to 6 months at a stretch. It is available in all the prominent health stores of your city and would minimize the gland to a small level but won’t heal the gland completely.
