Description

Your thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland in the front of your neck. It makes hormones that control the way the body uses energy. These hormones affect nearly every organ in your body and control many of your body's most important functions. For example, they affect your breathing, heart rate, weight, digestion, and moods. Thyroid diseases cause your thyroid to make either too much or too little of the hormones. Some of the different thyroid diseases include: Goiter, an enlargement of the thyroid gland Hyperthyroidism, which happens when your thyroid gland makes more thyroid hormones than your body needs Hypothyroidism, which happens when your thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormones Acupuncture Treatment for Thyroid can be a viable treatment
