Thyroid Disorders
Thyroid disorders affect the thyroid gland, a small butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck. The thyroid gland plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, energy levels, and other important bodily functions.
Our team of experienced endocrinologists specializes in diagnosing and treating a wide range of thyroid disorders, including:
1. Hypothyroidism: A condition where the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormone, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and depression.
2. Hyperthyroidism: A condition where the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone, causing symptoms such as weight loss, rapid heartbeat, and anxiety.
3. Thyroid nodules are abnormal growths or lumps on the thyroid gland. They can be benign or cancerous and may require further evaluation and treatment.
4. Thyroiditis: Inflammation of the thyroid gland, which can be caused by infection, autoimmune disorders, or other factors and may result in symptoms such as neck pain and swelling.
Our hospital offers diagnostic testing, including thyroid function tests, ultrasound imaging, and thyroid biopsy, to accurately diagnose thyroid disorders. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment options may include medication, hormone therapy, radioactive iodine therapy, or surgery.
