Hi Anonymous,

Thank you for your question and welcome to EmpowHer. Most research suggests that you must be sure that your thyroid levels are normal before any botox injections. Are you currently on any medication for your hypothyroidism?

Drugs.com gives you great information on drug interactions and here is the website for your convenience http://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/botulinum-toxin-type-a,botox-cosmetic.html.

Have you spoke to your physician about botox? What did he/she say?
