That is a possibility, I suppose.

I had labs done 6 months into the Atkins diet. From what I've researched, those on low carb who experience hypothyroid symptoms crop up 6 months to year into the diet.

I started adding carbs back in and in the labs 6 months later, my thyroid was back to normal.

That may be too spread out to form a specific correlation, but I still found it concerning. As you point out, it could be nothing. Something to discuss with my doctor regardless.
