i am almost 43 yrs old, have a dx of hashimoto's yet I am not on meds yet. I have recently been dx with 2 simple ovarian cysts on right ovary (1.8 & 1.9 cm) and a septated cyst (1.6cm) on left ovary. heavier than usual periods I am having a lot of gas and very few bowl movements (2 small somewhat hard in last 7 days when i am normally an every day every other day) Could this all be related to my thyroid. I normally have regular periods and bowel movements. I had my right thyroid removed 12 yrs ago due to a large non cancerous nodule. My left thyroid has small nodules. I do see an endocron. who reports my TSH is normal. last checked it was 2.6
