Thyroid disease: Watch out for these symptoms
The thyroid is a large, butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck which regulates your metabolism by releasing hormones into your bloodstream.
Types of thyroid disease typically fall into three categories; hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and thyroid nodules or cancer.
When this essential gland becomes disordered, many of the body’s functions start to slow down and it can hinder your everyday life.
Fortunately, there are many treatment options that can help you manage thyroid disorders. Let’s take a look at the most common symptoms of thyroid disease.
While none of these signs conclusively point to thyroid disorders, spotting them sooner rather than later means you will get the help and support you need and it’s worth seeing a doctor when you notice them.
