Hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism is not a contagious disease. The stress of disease or pregnancy can sometimes trigger hyperthyroidism in a susceptible individual however.

T4 is storage hormone and is inactive. It is converted to T3, which is the active form of the hormone that your cells use. The tests FT3 and FT4 tell how much of the hormone is in your blood, unbound to other proteins and hormones so they can be converted or utilized by the body. TSH is the hormone from your pituitary gland near your brain that tells your thyroid to produce more hormone.

A low FT4 and FT3 will result in an elevated TSH, indicating hypothyroidism - your thyroid isn't producing enough thyroid hormone.

A high FT4 and FT3 will result in a decreased TSH, indicating hyperthyroidism - your thyroid is producing too much thyroid hormone.

Normal levels of FT3 and FT4 may indicate several issues, including a problem with the pituitary gland itself; or a change in thyroid supplementation and testing that has occurred before TSH levels have had an opportunity to reflect those changes.

There are other causes of hormonal abnormalities, but an endocrinologist will know the correct tests to use to determine a diagnosis and potential treatment for abnormalities that are found.

Routine tests with high ferritin levels can be an indication of an iron storage disorder. One such disorder is hemochromatosis. This is a genetic disorder that results in iron-overload in the body.

Thyroid function - Hypothyroidism. A low level of thyroxine and high level of TSH indicate an underactive thyroid.

Yes, I have this disorder and I hate eating breakfast but not eating enough nutrients accelerates the fatigue and weakness and these triggers diziness.

its a glan if its behind the ear.

Patients with more advanced hyperparathyroidism will usually have all or half of the affected parathyroid gland or glands surgically removed

NO. In fact, while coconut oil doesn't cause the diseaseof hyperthyroidism, it does cause the thyroid to become more active by up to 20% from what I have read. Now back to the original answer posted:

actually hyperthyroidism causes weight loss while hypothyroidism causes weight gain. This is due to the hormones produced by the thyroid which regulate the storage of energy as fat in the body.

How numbness and tingling can be controlled or treated is completely dependent upon the cause or diagnosis. There are many reasons a patient may experience numbness or tingling.

There is no longer a thyroid, so it results in hypothyroid.

Intake foods that are high in iodine such as white onions, vegetables and root vegetables such as potatoes, asparagus, etc. (Iodine content of vegetables, fruits and cereals depends upon the iodine content of the soil).

Hi! Human cloning can probably be perfected but scientists are not that advanced yet. I'm working on an essay for human and animal cloning. Animal cloning has been successful with Dolly the Sheep and others but most of them have died young. Others also say that cloning has hidden DNA damage. So animal cloning is close to perfection-really close they have been successful but humans don't want to risk being tested unless scientists are absolutely sure. We have a while to wait!

Treatments most commonly used to manage hyperthyroidism are propylthiouracil (PTU) andmethimazole (Tapazole). These prescriptions help to slow down the production of thyroid hormones.

Radioiodine is another treatment option that helps to slowly destroy the thyroid gland, and thus slowing down the production of thyroid hormones.

Malunggay, or moringa, is known for its nutritional benefits but lacks strong scientific evidence to support its use as a treatment for hyperthyroidism. While it contains various vitamins and minerals that may promote overall health, it should not be relied upon as a primary treatment for thyroid disorders. Individuals with hyperthyroidism should consult a healthcare professional for appropriate diagnosis and treatment options.

HypERthryoid patients can often be maintained for years on anti-thyroid medicine (ATD's) when dosed correctly by a knowledgeable thyroid specialist (endocrinologist who specializes in thyroid patients). However, liver values must be watched regularly to be sure liver function is not compromised.

Hyperthyroidism is a symptom, not a disease. The symptom is a result of a disease or disorder which may cause other related symptoms, not the other way around. The symptom of hyperthyroidism may cause additional symptoms such as tachycardia, however it does not cause another disorder. When the hyperthyroid symptoms are treated, the additional symptoms typically disappear.

Often, there are no obvious symptoms to give rise to suspicion of hyperparathyroidism, and it is first diagnosed when a patient is discovered to be hypercalcemic during a routine blood chemistry profile.

That said, while symptoms vary widely from patient to patient, typical symptoms include fatigue, bone and muscle pain, fluctuations in blood pressure, heart arrhythmias, and irritability.

It is a severe enough condition that it could result in a medical discharge. One of the symptoms is an intolerance to heat, for example, which isn't particularly desirable in current theatres of operation.

Some cases of Hyperthyroidism can be permanently cured with surgery, however.

It means something is wrong with your liver. You could have a disease like hepatitis a, b, or c, or liver cancer, or be on chemotherapy or be taking some medicine that affects your liver or have recently eaten something that disagreed with you and made you really sick so the poison has not yet left your liver. Your liver is fighting something. What is the question. Your doctor has just performed a general test and has determined there is a problem with your liver. Next your doctor might perform a more specific blood test such as one to check for hepatitis a, b, and c. That test is quick. Then there is an MRI of the liver. That checks for cancer. If you have liver cancer, you may have an in situ operation. I have heard of the Mayo Clinic having success with that. Whatever it is, it involves your liver.

What I've read about coconut is it stimulates your thyroid, therefore, may make it more hyper. To be on the safe side avoid it if you have an overactive thyroid. However, if someone has a hypothyroid (slow so you gain weight), it may help stimulate your thyroid in order to lose weight.
