About The Causes Of Hyperthyroidism?

Hi Fransiska.. Thank you for the questions given.

Thyroid hormone has a role in the body as a regulator of metabolism, heart rate, growth and development, as well as other functions in the body. If there is a thyroid disorder, namely hyperthyroidism, it will interfere with several body functions, causing symptoms such as:

Weight loss Sensitive to hot air Tremors Menstrual disorders Night sweats Heart palpitations Body feels weak Impaired vision The cause of this disease can be due to autoimmune disorders, thyroid nodules, malignancy of the thyroid gland, inflammation of the thyroid gland. If you experience these symptoms and the TSH, T3, T4 lab results lead to a diagnosis of hyperthyroidism, it's best if you immediately undergo hyperthyroid treatment. At first the symptoms are still mild, but if not treated properly it can result in:

Cardiac disorders due to a fast or irregular heart rhythm Eyes appear prominent and may be accompanied by visual disturbances Bone disorders due to calcium metabolism disorders Disorders during pregnancy that can lead to miscarriage and increased blood pressure Thyroid crisis -- loss of consciousness, fever, chest palpitations Meanwhile several things what can do:

Take medicine regularly, treatment must be done in the long term so patience is needed Check thyroid hormone levels regularly Can take vitamin D and calcium Diet according to doctor's advice Hopefully useful
