Thyroid Disorders
About the disease & condition
Thyroid disorders occur when the thyroid gland produces too much or too little thyroid hormone. Hyperthyroidism leads to increased metabolism, while hypothyroidism slows bodily functions. These hormonal imbalances can affect heart rate, weight, mood, and energy levels. Causes include autoimmune conditions, iodine imbalance, and thyroid nodules. Early diagnosis through blood tests and appropriate treatment helps maintain normal hormone levels and prevent complications.
