Hypersecretion of thyroxine, often due to conditions such as Graves' disease, leads to hyperthyroidism. This results in an overactive metabolism, causing symptoms like weight loss, increased heart rate, anxiety, and heat intolerance. Patients may also experience goiter, which is an enlargement of the thyroid gland. Effective treatment options include antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine, or surgery, depending on the severity and underlying cause.
