not necessarily.
but in some persons the hormone imbalance may cause irregular periods, which may interfere with ovulation.
but not all thyroid patients have PCOD, nor all PCODs have thyroid dysfuction.

Not necessarily.

They are 2 different afflicments and not necessarily related- it is possible for someone with thyroid to get PCOD.

A slow thyroid especially can cause PCOD due to overweight.
