"Hyperthyroidism" is the full name of hyperthyroidism in medicine, which is mainly a disease caused by excessive secretion of thyroid hormones. This disease is mainly manifested as hand tremors, palpitation, excessive sweating, heat intolerance, increased stool frequency, photophobia, neck swelling, etc., and if the condition is more severe, patients may even have a variety of complications such as heart disease or vision loss. Clinically, there are many causes of hyperthyroidism, and for different types of hyperthyroidism, the best ways are also different.

In daily life, people with these 4 "characteristics" may be targeted by hyperthyroidism, which both men and women should understand.

1.People who are mentally stressed.

Clinically, the most common cause of hyperthyroidism is Gr**es disease, which is an autoimmune disease that is associated with immune dysfunction. For friends who are under too much mental pressure for a long time, it often leads to a certain stimulation of their own immune system, and in serious cases, it may even lead to immune system dysfunction, which is very likely to become the cause of hyperthyroidism.

2.People with a family history of hyperthyroidism.

Hyperthyroidism is hereditary, so for friends with a family history of hyperthyroidism, the risk of developing hyperthyroidism may be higher than that of the general population. For such friends, it is important to be vigilant in daily life and pay attention to relevant prevention work, only in this way can we prevent hyperthyroidism to the greatest extent.

3.People with excessive iodine intake.

For the thyroid gland, iodine is often needed to synthesize thyroid hormones. Because of this, if we consume a large amount of iodine on a daily basis, it may lead to excessive thyroid hormones secreted by the body, which will eventually lead to hyperthyroidism. Generally speaking, our normal intake of iodine from our diet will not lead to excessive iodine levels in our bodies.

Conversely, if you eat a lot of high-salt foods every day and eat seafood every other day, you are likely to overdose iodine, which can threaten thyroid health.

4.People who have recently been infected with the virus.

In daily life, certain bacterial or viral infections are also very likely to cause thyroiditis. In general, if you have thyroiditis, it can also cause hyperthyroidism.

This is because when the thyroid gland is damaged by inflammation, the thyroid hormone in the body is secreted into the bloodstream in large quantities, in which case, hyperthyroidism may be induced. From a medical point of view, most patients with thyroiditis will have adverse symptoms such as palpitation, sore throat, fever, etc., which can easily be mistaken for a cold.

Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of thyroiditis without knowing it, we must pay attention to our physical state on weekdays, and once we find an abnormality, it is best to pay attention to it.

In short, we must pay attention to the protection of the thyroid gland in our daily life, and for the above 4 types of friends, we need to pay more attention. This requires us to minimize behaviors that are harmful to thyroid health, such as staying up late for a long time, eating irregularly, and excessive salt intake. At the same time, we must learn to regulate our emotions in daily life, and only by maintaining a good attitude can we better ensure thyroid health.
