- Thyroid Disorders | Dr. Ritu Sharma
Thyroid disorders (Hypothyroidism /Hyperthyroidism) The thyroid gland is located just below the larynx in the neck and responsible for controls the amount of thyroxin hormone produced and released in the body. Thyroid gland disorder is one of the most common diseases seen frequently now days. The thyroid gland secretes the thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) hormones in a ratio of 90:10. All Body functions depend upon thyroid hormones, so thyroid gland dysfunction lead to various symptoms. If thyroid hormone is under production the condition is called hypothyroidism (under-active thyroid) and if thyroid hormone is in overproduction the condition is called hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) . Hypothyroidism: In Hypothyroidism condition the body lacks sufficient thyroid hormone due to less secretion of it. As the main work of thyroid hormone is to "run the body's metabolism," its insufficiency can lead to condition with symptoms associated with a slow metabolism. The common cause of hypothyroidism is inflammation of the thyroid gland, which leads thyroid cells to damage (or dead) and make incapable of producing sufficient hormone. The most common cause of thyroid gland dysfunction is autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's thyroiditis), a form of thyroid inflammation caused by the patient's own immune system. Other cause of thyroid insufficiency is low production of thyroid stimulating hormone by pituitary gland. If the pituitary does not produce enough thyroid stimulating hormones (TSH) then the thyroid simply does not have the "signal" to make hormone. Symptoms of Hypothyroidism: Fatigue, Weakness, Weight gain or increased difficulty losing weight, Coarse, dry hair, Dry, rough pale skin, Hair loss, Cold intolerance (you can't tolerate cold temperatures like those around you), Muscle cramps and frequent muscle aches, Constipation, Depression, Irritability, Memory loss, Abnormal menstrual cycles, Decreased sexual drive. Hyperthyroidism: Hyperthyroidism, also known as over active thyroid and hyper thyriosis, occurs due to excessive production of thyroid hormone by the thyroid gland Excessive production of thyroid hormone leads to Thyrotoxicosis. Signs and symptoms include irritability, muscle weakness, sleeping disturbance, increased heartbeat, heat intolerance, diarrhoea, enlargement of the thyroid (goitre), and weight loss Homoeopathic treatment for thyroid disorder: A perfect constitutional homoeopathic remedy prescribed by a qualified homoeopathic doctor offers a better and safest option for treating thyroid disorder. There are a number of medicines for thyroid in homeopathy for the patients with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism symptoms. The homeopathic remedies are prepared from a wide range of substances such as the vegetables, herbs, minerals, chemicals and animal products in extremely minute doses which acts dynamically and stimulate body’s own healing power. Homeopathic medicines reactivate the thyroid gland cells to the secrete hormone normally and also restore the thyroid tissue through the pituitary allow the body to heal itself which leads to disappearance of symptoms.
