Autoimmune thyroiditis is the most common type of thyroid disease in women. It's also called Hashimotos. I have it too. My endo just told me it's very common and most women with hypothyroidism, have the autoimmune one.

It's very simple to treat (for most people). I take Synthroid to treat my thyroid.
