Dogs are usually affected during middle age and show lethargy, weight gain, alopecia, pyoderma and seborrhea. As soon as the problem is diagnosed, treatment with synthetic levothyroxine must be initiated and the animal must be monitored periodically through laboratory tests, allowing the control of hormones.Acesso AbertoMedicina VeterináriaEndocrinopatiaHipotireoidismoCãesCNPQ::CIENCIAS AGRARIASArtigo de Evento
