Types discussion:
Hypothyroidism is the most common form of thyroid disease. It occurs
when the thyroid does not produce enough thyroid hormone-causing the body
use energy more slowly than it should. Symptoms may include feeling
sluggish, cold, depressed, forgetful, experiencing dry hair and skin,
constipation, and increased menstrual flow. Hashimoto's thyroiditis is an
autoimmune disease in which the body attacks the thyroid and keeps it from
producing enough thyroid hormone. It is the most common form of
hypothyroidism.
Hyperthyroidism occurs when the thyroid produces too much thyroid
hormone and makes the body use more energy than it should. Symptoms may
include nervousness, irritability, shaky hands, increased perspiration,
warm skin, thinning hair, weight loss, decreased menstruation, eye
changes, and weak leg muscles. Grave's disease is the most common form of
hyperthyroidism. It is an autoimmune condition in which the body produces
antibodies that overstimulate the thyroid gland, so that it produces too
much thyroid hormone.
Postpartum thyroiditis is a swelling of the thyroid that occurs in
5%-7% of women who give birth, and can cause temporarily high levels of
thyroid hormone.
Thyroid cancer.
Most thyroid cancers grow very slowly and can be
effectively treated. Although anyone can get thyroid cancer, people who as
children received head or neck x-ray treatments for tonsillitis or other
conditions (generally from the 1920s to 1960s) are more at risk.
