The cure or treatment for hyperthyroidism depends entirely upon its cause. For example:
- Iodine toxicity hyperthyroidism may be "cured" by decreasing iodine levels in the food eaten
- A *hot* nodule may be "cured" by removal.
Autoimmune hyperthyroidism cannot be cured however, because the problem is not the thyroid, but the antibodies that are stimulating the thyroid to overproduce. Ablating or removing the thyroid removes the excess hormones, but not the antibodies which may also attack other areas of the body including bones, brain, skin, eyes, etc. This type of hyperthyroidism is treated, not cured.
