The answer is, it depends. If it is just hypothyroidism and you are being treated, it shouldn't be related.

However, if you have hypothyroidism due to an autoimmune disorder (ie: lupus, rhumatoid arthritis, MS, etc.), it could be the autoimmune disorder that is causing your gums to bleed.

You may want to see about going to your regular doctor or an immunologist or rheumatologist to find out if you have an underlying autoimmune disorder.

Also, even if you don't have gum disease, if you don't floss regularly when you do floss, it may cause your gums to bleed. Or if you brush too hard.

Hey there,
I was interested in finding ways to naturally overcome hypothyroidism and I discovered this online resource called hypothyroidismrevolution. The author Tom Brimeyer explains an unconventional approach to hypothyroidism that I’ve never seen anywhere before. This is EYE-OPENING info for anyone who suffers from hypothyroidism and who really wants to learn the truth about how to permanently overcome hypothyroidism.

Thyroid disease is one of the most common health problems we face today. From a practical standpoint, there are many ways to approach this issue. Learn here https://tr.im/uF8ly

Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is a very common problem, and there are many reasons for this, including drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water, and eating brominated flour.

Chlorine, fluoride, and bromine are all in the same family as iodine, and can displace iodine in your thyroid gland.

Secondly, many people simply aren't getting enough iodine in their diet to begin with. The amount you get from iodized salt is just barely enough to prevent you from getting a goiter.

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland that sits low on the front of the neck. Your thyroid lies below your Adam’s apple, along the front of the windpipe. The thyroid has two side lobes, connected by a bridge (isthmus) in the middle. When the thyroid is its normal size, you’re unlikely to be able to feel it.
All types of hyperthyroidism are due to overproduction of thyroid hormones, but the condition can develop in several ways.
Thyroid hormone production can be suppressed or halted completely in these ways: https://tr.im/B4KYK
