I had my thyroid tested and was told it was on the lower end of the scale (close to underactive)
This shocked me because the resason I got it tested was due to the fact i thought it was possibly overactive. I had most of the symptoms, for example i eat a lot but im quite skinny.
I waited and got it tested again and it crept back up.
The only thing i changed between tests was my d1az intake (i skipped my morning 5mg, pre-test)
So yes, i believe they do temporarily lower it (or make it less active) but i dont think they can permanently alter it.
Just my 2¢
