A goiter signals that there is something wrong with your thyroid gland. The thyroid controls your metabolism, mental acuity, skin dryness, hair, etc. If you have one for a long time, this means you are not being treated for your condition. If you are being treated and you still have one, you need to return to your doctor as this should not be happening.
Goiters sometimes develop because you lack iodine in your diet. Another reason is that your gland is hypertrophying and is getting stimulated to grow because the brain thinks it is not producing enough thyroid hormone...or you have Hashimoto's or a multinodular goiter. I'm sure there are other conditions.
If you are not getting enough thyroid hormone, over a long period of time you should notice weight gain, fatique, sluggish mental capability/focus, heavy periods, constipation, hair falling out (the part widening) and usually the outer one-third of the eye brows will disappear and when it is very advanced, you will have Heart disease and a condition that makes your eyes look Asian (myxedema).
