Thyroid Disease

Thyroid disease refers to all conditions affecting the thyroid gland and how much thyroid hormone it can make; these include hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroid cancer, and different types of thyroid disease. You might experience fatigue, weight changes, temperature sensitivity, and mood swings. Treatment depends on the condition and may include medication, radioactive iodine therapy, or surgery. As a part of treatment or to offset the effects of thyroid gland removal, you may need to take a lifelong prescription of thyroid hormone supplements.[1]
