Total Thyroidectomy post surgery risks
Hi doctor.
My brother has undergone TOTAL THYROIDECTOMY surgery 4 years back. Now he is on regular thyroid pills.
Just wanted to understand, in future is there a chance of any serious side effects/ risks due to this surgery? Or will he face male infertility problem in future?
Thank you in advance.
