I can see where you got this idea from but it mentions the findings as being in ANIMAL studies, but says not wise to take if there is a family history of thyroid cancer.
You should discuss your concern with your GP if you are worried.
There are a number of side effects listed as there are for many drugs but not everybody will get them.
 
It is an affect so rare that you can ignore it. You have more chance of being killed by a lightning strike. Thyroid cancer is more than survivable anyway, because it is externally obvious, and easily removed.
