Sir I want to know that can hypothyroid and high blood pressure affect our body immunity system?

Question

Hypothyroid and hypertension both have multi systemic affections. Hypothyroidism itself may have autoimmune cause or other cause and hypothyroidism basically lowers metabolism and in turn our immune system may not be able to work in its full potential. In hypertension, on other hand, behind its pathological manifestation the circulatory system and vasculature derangement plays a key role, any immune derangement as a direct consequence isn't attributed now and then to it, it's moreover a damage of lifeline of all organs, the vascular damage and pathological changes is circulatory system that defines the malady.

Hello, Thanks for the query. Hypothyroidism (if not due to Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, HT), is very simple hormone deficiency disease. Which can be corrected easily by regular supplement of Levothyroxine in adequate dosage. Similarly high BP is also not a disease which affects immune system. Thanks.
