Health Desk. In today’s fast and stressful life, thyroid is becoming a common health problem, especially among women. Thyroiditis is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones or produces too many hormones. If it is not identified and controlled in time, it can cause serious health problems.

5 main symptoms that should not be ignored

1. Sudden weight gain or loss

If weight is increasing or decreasing without any apparent reason, it could be a sign of thyroid. In hypothyroidism (when hormones are low), weight increases, while in hyperthyroidism (when hormones are high), weight can decrease.

2. Fatigue and lack of energy

Sudden fatigue, lack of ability to work or feeling lethargic throughout the day can also be a sign of thyroid. It affects the energy production process in the body.

3. Hair loss and skin changes

Common warning symptoms of thyroid include thinning or rapid hair fall, roughness or excessive dryness of the skin.

4. Abnormal changes in heart rate

If you have a fast or irregular heartbeat, frequent chills or cold hands and feet, this may also be to the thyroid.

5. Mood swings and mental changes

Sudden depression, irritability, difficulty concentrating or poor memory can also be symptoms of thyroid.

What is the opinion of doctors in this regard?

Endocrinologists say that women should not ignore these symptoms. If any symptoms are felt, TSH, T3 and T4 hormone levels should be checked through blood test. With early detection and proper treatment, thyroid can be controlled and health complications can be avoided.
