video: Thyroid Stress Depression Anxiety in Thyroid Hypothyroid Causes Treatment Hashimoto Thyroiditis Symptoms
Thyroid is a butterfly shaped gland situated in, front
part of neck below larynx i.e. the voice box. This gland makes thyroxine
hormone T3 (Total or Free Tri-iodo Thyronine) & T4 (Tetraiodo
Thyronine). These two hormones are
under control of TSH (Thyroid Stimulating hormone) which is secreted from
pituitary gland in brain. The above Thyroid hormones control many of the
organ’s function. When Thyroid hormone is increased in blood then it is called thyrotoxicosis (Hyperthyroidism) & when these hormones are low i.e. decreased in blood it is called Hypothyroidism (Myxoedema) & when thyroid hormone is normal in blood it is called Euthyroid.Thyroid gland size may increase than normal then it is called goitre (normal size is 2 cm wide & 2 cm. long). Thyrotoxicosis is a condition
when thyroid hormone T3, T4 concentration increases in blood
along with subnormal i.e. suppressed or low TSH is called Thyrotoxicosis. Bone may get weak called
osteoporosis, also serum calcium & alkaline phosphatase may increase
patient may pass excess of urine, develops anemia. It leads to lack of
development of beard & moustache in boys & breast development in
boys (Gynecomastia). In females it leads to infertility i.e. difficulty in
conceiving & even if conceives leads to abortion. Diagnosis : For
diagnosis of cause of thyrotoxicosis some of the following tests Serum T3,
T4, TSH, Free T3, Free T4, TSH, Antimicrosomal antibody (antiperoxidase
antibody), Antithyroglobulin antibody. Radioactive iodine uptake, Thyroid
scan, Thyroglabulin, thyroid binding globulin (TBG) are required depending
on the likelihood of particular cause based on history & examination.
At our diabetes & thyroid center we have most advance state of the art
laboratory with all the modern facility for all above tests. In thyrotoxicosis thyroid
hormone T3 & T4 are elevated in blood & TSH low. Regarding Eye complication
of thyroid i.e. ophthalmopathy it can be unilateral i.e. one side
prominent eye or both side. For diagnosis C.T. scan of eye, eye pressure
& tonometry tested. The various causes
& treatment of Thyrotoxicosis are : Graves disease i.e. hyperthyroidism there is excess
production of thyroid hormone from hyper-functioning Thyroid gland. Two
years treatment is needed for cure. Usually adequate treatment of
hyperthyroidism by neomercazol or antithyrox or PTU should be under the
guidance of thyroid specialist so that thyroid is permanently cured &
no side effects of tablets develops.
Sometimes radio iodine therapy is required. Radio iodine therapy is
a very effective treatment but its side effect should be evaluated first
by detail history & examination. Surgery
for thyrotoxicosis now rarely needed. Complication of thyroid
surgery are hypo-parathyroidism & others. Toxic adenoma : In
this a single enlarged nodule produces too much thyroid hormone. It needs
radio-iodine treatment or sclero therapy or surgery for cure easily. Thyrotoxicosis in child
needs special precaution & treatment. Thyroiditis is one of the common cause of thyrotoxicosis. This is of three type as follows : Subacute Thyroiditis:
In this condition there occurs inflammation i.e. swelling in thyroid gland
due to viral infection. Symptoms are swelling in neck, pain in neck,
throat pain, fever, along with symptoms & signs suggestive of Thyrotoxicosis.Tests required for proper diagnosis are throid
test, ESR, thyrod antibody
test & thyroid scan. With appropriate treatment it is cured
permanently in two months. Silent Thyroiditis :
In thyroiditis there occurs leakage of preformed thyroid
hormone from thyroid gland in blood due to inflammation (i.e. holes) in
thyroid gland. In silent thyroiditis etiology
is idiopathic with symptom
& signs of thyrotoxicosis
but no pain or fever.with proper diagnosis & trweatment it is cured
easily
(6)Hashimoto Thyroiditis: In this condition
there occurs swelling of thyroid due
to deposition of inflammatory cells in the thyroid. Symptoms are thyroid
enlargement i.e. goiter
& symptoms of thyrotoxicosis. Thyrotoxicosis (Thyroid) during pregnancy we
