It affects the metabolism of the body with various other hormones, such as thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Thyroid gland disorder can cause inflammation in thyroid glands and iodine deficiency in the body. It is also responsible for an autoimmune condition wherein cells of the body attack and damage the thyroid. It can lead to various types of thyroid cancer, depending upon the specific cell type within the thyroid. It can also produce nodules that can vary in size and may cause compression of nearby structures. It can be treated through anti-thyroid drugs, radioactive iodine, beta blockers, and surgery.
