Hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is overactive. The thyroid gland is one of the most important organs in our body. It is responsible for the production of hormones that regulate metabolism, growth and development of the body. With hyperthyroidaselation, the level of thyroid hormones is significantly increased, which leads to disruption of the functioning of many organs and systems.

There can be several causes of hyperthyroidism, for example, genetic predisposition, damage to the thyroid gland, excessive consumption of iodine in food, or radiation exposure. Symptoms of the disease may include increased sweating, rapid heartbeat, fatigue, sleep disturbances, weight loss and other symptoms. However, one of the most common symptoms is headache, which may not be related to physical activity.

Treatment for hyperthyroidism depends on the cause of the disease. If the cause is genetic, then treatment may not be necessary, since this form of the disease is often hereditary. In other cases, surgery or medication may be required. It is important to consult a doctor to determine the most effective treatment.
