Symptoms include:

Hair loss, including eyebrows
Rough skin, dry, tangled hair
Lethargy
Weight Gain
Constipation
Hypoglycemia
Memory Loss
Also related to hypothyroidism that are seemingly unrelated to this condition include:
Fallen arches
Asthma
Psoriasis
Neck Pain and Stiffness
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Hoarseness
