Hypothyroidism
Hypothyroidism: Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones. Symptoms often include fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, slow heart rate, and constipation. The deficiency in thyroid hormones can slow down metabolism and can affect various body functions. Hypothyroidism can stem from several causes, including autoimmune disease (like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis), certain medications, radiation therapy, thyroid surgery, and iodine deficiency. Treatment may involve thyroid hormone replacement therapy to normalize hormone levels and alleviate symptoms¹.

Hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone, leading to an acceleration of the body’s metabolism. Common symptoms include unintended weight loss, rapid heartbeat, increased appetite, nervousness, anxiety, tremor, and sweating. It can be caused by conditions such as Graves’ disease, toxic adenoma, Plummer’s disease, or thyroiditis. Treatment options may include antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine treatment, or thyroid surgery, all aiming to reduce or normalize thyroid hormone production.²

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, often leading to hypothyroidism. It’s the most common cause of hypothyroidism in the United States. The damage to the thyroid can cause it to fail, necessitating lifelong thyroid hormone replacement. Symptoms of Hashimoto’s may include fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, joint and muscle pain, hair loss, and fertility issues. Early diagnosis and treatment can help control the symptoms and prevent complications.³
