Thyroid Disorders: Causes, Symptoms, and Management
Thyroid disorders occur when the thyroid gland produces too much or too little hormone, affecting metabolism, energy levels, and overall health. Proper diagnosis and management are crucial for maintaining hormonal balance.
Types of Thyroid Disorders:
Hypothyroidism: Underactive thyroid leading to fatigue, weight gain, and slow metabolism.
Hyperthyroidism: Overactive thyroid causing weight loss, rapid heartbeat, and anxiety.
Goiter: Enlargement of the thyroid due to iodine deficiency or hormonal imbalances.
Thyroid Nodules: Lumps in the thyroid gland, which may be benign or cancerous.
