Hyperthyroidism can lead to hypothyroidism primarily through the treatment methods used to manage the overactive thyroid, such as radioactive iodine therapy or surgery, which may reduce thyroid hormone production excessively. Additionally, autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's thyroiditis can develop after initial hyperthyroid states, leading to inflammation and decreased thyroid function.
