Nearthyroidism is a disease caused by an overactive thyroid gland in the body and which increases the amount of calcium in the blood. Hypothyroidism, if not treated promptly, can lead to diseases such as osteoporosis, high blood pressure, pancreatitis or peptic ulcer, kidney stones.
1. What is methopyroidism?
Nearthyroidism is a pathology caused by too much an overactive bloodline hormone. The glands are grain-sized, oval. The hypothyroid glands produce the thyroid hormone, which helps the body maintain the proper balance of calcium in the blood and tissues.
There are 2 types of subthyroidism:
- Hyperthyroidism: Due to hypertrocemia of one or more subthyroid glands, an excess of hormones leads to high levels of calci in the blood. Nearthyroidism causes a wide range of health problems.
- Subthyroidism: Due to complications of one or more diseases that cause low calcium levels in the bones.
Common complications of mythyroidism include:
- Causes osteoporosis: The loss of calcium is the cause of osteoporosis, or osteoporosis, brittle bones that easily lead to fractures.
- Kidney stones: Excess calcium in the blood deposits calcium and other substances in the kidneys causing kidney stones. The disease causes pain when kidney stones pass through the urinary tract.
- Cardiovascular disease: High calcium levels can cause certain types of heart disease.
- Newborn hypothyroidism: Severe, non-treatment of hypothyroidism in pregnant women can cause dangerously low calcium levels in newborns.
2. Causes and symptoms of methyroidism
The causes of mythyroidism are:
- The cause of the main athyroidism is: 2 or more overactive subthyroid glands and excessive production of the thyroid hormone; due to a tumor in one of the methyroid glands; cancer in the subthyroid glands.
- Causes of subthyroidism: The body of the person does not have enough calcium; the amount of vitamin D is extremely low so the amount of calcium in the blood is not enough for the patient's body to absorb calcium.
Symptoms of hemopyroidism include:
When symptoms of hypothyroidism occur, they are the result of lesions or dysfunction in other muscles or tissues due to high or too little ileum levels of calcium in the blood circulation in the bones.
Signs and symptoms include:
- Fragile bones, fragile bones;
- Kidney stones
- Abdominal pain, repeated urination
- Frequent fatigue or weakness
- Depression, memory loss
- Bone pain and joint pain
- Nausea, vomiting or loss of appetite
These symptoms can be caused by any disorders and some serious complications. Therefore, it is necessary to be diagnosed quickly correctly to have an appropriate regimen for treatment of near-thyroid disease.
3. Diagnosis and treatment of methyroidism
3.1. Diagnosis of methyroidism
Methods for diagnosing mythyroidism include:
Blood test: If the results of the blood test result in high blood calcium levels, the doctor may repeat the tests to confirm the results after not eating for a period of time. The doctor may make a diagnosis of hemopyroidism if a blood test shows an increase in the thyroid hormone.
Bone density test: The most common tests for measuring bone density are X-ray absorption energy, or DXA scan. This method will use x-ray devices to measure calcium and other bone minerals at the site of a segment of the bone.
Urine tests: 24-hour urine can provide information about how renal function and calcium are excreted in the urine, helping to assess the severity of mythyroidism or diagnose renal disorders that cause hypothyroidism.
Photo of the kidneys: This method can diagnose methyroidism. Your doctor will have an X-ray or another image of your abdomen to determine if there are kidney stones or abnormalities in other kidneys.
3.2. Treatment of methyroidism
Treatment of nearthyroidism is usually based on the cause of the disease. Specifically:
- For subthyroidism: You will be asked to take vitamin D and calcium supplements.
- For primitive mythyroidism: You will need surgery to remove one or more overactive methyroid glands. Surgery is the most common treatment for primitive mythyroidism. Surgery can be performed through very small incisions and the patient is injected with local anesthetics.
4. Limit the progress of methyroidism
The following lifestyle habits can help people with mythopyroidism limit the progress of mythopyroidism:
- Tell your specialist if you have a family history associated with mythopyroidism or other end endopoid tumors.
- Go to a medical facility to check if you feel dehydration (watery) or unable to move due to injury or some other medical condition, as this may affect the amount of calcium present in your body and the appearance of symptoms of kidney stones, muscle spasms , convulsions in the face or numbness in the surrounding area after parathyroid surgery.
- If you have just finished treating mythyroidism, distribute plenty of water (at least 2 liters of water) every day to prevent increased blood calcium levels, as dehydration will increase the amount of calcium in the patient's blood.
- Check periodically (once every 6 months) if you have methyroidism but do not perform surgery; and regularly do tests to know the extent of the disease such as blood tests, urine tests, bone density tests, kidney function and check the amount of calcium in your blood.
