There is a pretty good chance it could be reversed but will likely take a long time. In addition to iodine (and possibly selenium deficiency) she likely is carrying around a lot of fluoride/bromide so in a case where someone is truly hypo they need to detox so the iodine/selenium can do its job. That process can take a year or more. If she already has a naturopath I would see if they are willing to work with her on iodine supplementation to attempt resolution.
Id start with an iodine loading test with bromide toxicity, think its about $150. That will give you the current iodine and bromide levels. Then I would decide if she wants to go all in or simply ease into it. If she wants to ease in, get lugols solution 5% and start with a drop a day (6mg iodine/iodide combo) for a week and add a drop a week until she gets to 50mg or so.
If she just wants to go all in you can either use lugols or iodarol(50mg) and hit the ground running. Run 50mg or so for a good 90 days and retest iodine/bromide and adjust accordingly. If iodine loading comes back as good but bromide is still high you can stay at the high iodine dose to continue to detox or cut back to about 12mg. High dose vitamin C (as ascorbic acid) will speed up detoxing as well. The more she can tolerate a day the better, split up in many doses. I take 3g 5-7 times a day myself, its cheap and beneficial for so many things.
If she wants to give it a try and you need some lab names for bromide toxicity/iodine loading test PM me.
