Yay! I'm famous! lmao
Anyways, I've read that taking estrogens/phytoestrogens can desensitize your body to thyroid hormones, so many people that are borderline may become hypo, and those that are already hypo may get worse.
Usually, the solution is start on a small amount of thyroid meds, or increase the dose. However, without a thyroid in your body...I'm not quite sure what the effect would be, to be honest.
Sorry
