Can hypothyroidism cause no breast growth?

Dear Ask The Doctor: I am a 14 year old girl. I have many symptoms of hypothyroidism, but have not yet seen a doctor about it. If I were to have hypothyroidism, could this be the reason for my small breast size? I have no breasts whatsoever, even though I am a few pounds over weight, none of the fat ever goes to my breasts.

Dear Sophia:  Typically hypothyroidism does not cause or present with decreased breast size.  Infact hypothyroidism will lead to weight gain . You need to get checked up for your thyroid function to have a clearer idea. Please see a physician in person . All the best.
