What are the different thyroid conditions?
Hypothyroidism (Hypo): Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces insufficient thyroid hormones, leading to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and depression. It slows down metabolic processes, often requiring hormone replacement therapy for management.
Hyperthyroidism (Hyper): Hyperthyroidism is characterised by an overactive thyroid gland producing excessive thyroid hormones. This accelerates the body’s metabolism, causing symptoms such as weight loss, rapid heartbeat, and anxiety. Treatments include medication, radioactive iodine, or surgery.
Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis: Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, leading to chronic inflammation and hypothyroidism. Symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, and cold intolerance. It’s managed with hormone replacement therapy.
Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: Autoimmune thyroid diseases include conditions like Hashimoto’s and Graves’ disease, where the immune system mistakenly targets thyroid tissues. This can lead to either hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, requiring tailored treatments to manage hormone levels and immune response.
