Thyroid is a gland that produces hormones which help the physical growth and control the organs. How fast the body has to work, for that how much energy is needed, is decided and ordered by this thyroid hormone. This gland produces three types of hormones. T-3, T-4 and TSH. If the balance of any of these hormones differs then the diseases regarding thyroid starts.

• Hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid)

• Hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid)

• Goiter (an enlarged thyroid)

• Thyroid nodules (lumps in the thyroid gland)

• Thyroid cancer (malignant thyroid nodules or tissue)

• Thyroiditis

Most thyroid dysfunction such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism is due to autoimmune thyroid disease. This causes the immune system to wrongly mount an attack on the affected area, gradually destroy the thyroid, or make it overactive.
