Becoming deficient in iodine can cause many issues, including:

Failure to thrive, as well as growth and development issues in the brain and nervous system of infants (due to maternal iodine deficiency in utero as well as outside the womb)
Cretinism or mental retardation in young children
Decreased fertility rates in men and women
Goiter, or enlargement of the thyroid gland, leading to pressure on the larynx and vocal cords and trouble swallowing
Fatigue, brain fog, and muscle pain
Fibrocystic breast disease and extreme breast tenderness
Death

Because many of these are the same symptoms associated with thyroid problems, doctors will often prescribe medication to ease these symptoms without truly getting to the root of the problem. It is best to request testing for an iodine deficiency prior to accepting medication and receiving a potentially incorrect treatment.
