What is Hyperthyroidism?

A disorder of an overactive thyroid gland. This causes overactivity of thyroid hormones that are needed for growth, development, and metabolism. Causes include viral infections, brain disorders, and autoimmunity (where the body's immune system attacks itself). Symptoms include weight loss, tremors and palpitations and/or rapid heart rate.

Typical Symptoms of Hyperthyroidism

Diagnostic Questions for Hyperthyroidism

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Have you noticed an unusual increase in your breast size?
  • Do your eyes bulge?
  • Have you been feeling unusually energetic lately?
  • Do you experience wheezing or whistling sounds when breathing?
  • Do you get heart palpitations when you exercise?

Treatment of Hyperthyroidism

The treatment aims to stop the thyroid from overproducing hormones. Options include anti-thyroid medications, radioactive iodine therapy, and surgery to remove the thyroid. At the same time, medications may be prescribed to control symptoms like palpitations and anxiety.
