Thyroid Test

It is a shocking reality that the number of cases of thyroid patients is increasing alarmingly. The doctors have revealed that newborn and infants are mostly vulnerable to suffer from this disease. Thyroid hormone helps in regulating stress levels, body’s metabolism and is responsible for producing energy in the body. Hypothyroidism is a condition when body does not produce enough of triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) hormones, which are two major hormones, in this case, the body experiences lack of energy, weight gain and depression. This calls for a need to go thyroid tests before the symptoms aggravate and give birth to other problems.

In another case, when the thyroid gland is hyperactive, it produces these hormones in excessive amount, leading to other complications such as higher levels of anxiety, weight loss, tremors etc. This condition is called hyperthyroidism. In 2004, a study has revealed that increased stress levels due to lifestyle changes is also responsible for thyroid autoimmunity. It is a common observation these days that people are becoming the victims of anxiety, stress, pain and this is one of the primary reasons responsible for aggravating hypothyroidism and infact stress can be one of the symptoms of this health issue.

A person develops this medical condition when the thyroid gland does not function properly and produce hormones in the adequate amount. There are several reasons of developing this disease.

1. Medication is one of the reason that can cause hyperthyroidism. For example, lithium, amiodarone are some of the medicines that disrupts the normal production of thyroid hormone. However, supervision and prescription of doctors is necessary while taking anti-thyroid drugs because if they are taken in high dosage, this can lead to hypothyroidism.

2. Hashimotos Disease

   This is another medical condition in which bodys immune system begins to attack its own cells and organs. It attacks the thyroid gland as well, leading to inflammation and its abnormal functioning.

3. Congenital Hypothyroidism

   This is a medical condition in case of newborn babies when they are born with these disorders. If it is not treated on time, it can lead to severe complications. In U.S, many children are diagnosed with this medical condition.

4. Inadequate amount of Iodine in the body

   Iodine is responsible for thyroid hormone production. Inadequate amount of Iodine present in the body can lead to thyroid disorder and goitre.
