Too much production of thyroid hormones is referred to as hyperthyroidism. It can result in symptoms such as weight loss, rapid heartbeat, anxiety, and irritability. Too little production of thyroid hormones is known as hypothyroidism. It can cause symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, dry skin, and depression.
The thyroid gland is the most common endocrine gland to produce a disease condition or problem. Conditions such as hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) and hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) are frequently seen.

Grave's Disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis are two that I know of. Grave's tends to have a steady stream of hyperthyroid symptoms while in Hashimoto's tyroiditis it might start out hyperthyroid and as the antibodies attack it will eventually dwindle down to hypothyroidism. Somtimes there will be bursts of hyperthyroid behavior as the thryoid gland is destroyed by antibodies in Hashimoto's thryoiditis.
