Hashimoto's thyroiditis treatment
Hashimoto's disease, we began to hear more and more often.
The reason for this expansion of our endocrine surgery risk the group and the
word from prof.Yeşim Erbil we asked for the treatment.

the most common cause of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto's. Generally iodine
sufficient areas is seen in the firmness and the world is increasing. Usually
is more common in women between the ages of 30-50. Also genetic factors in
women of the same family than the risk of being seen.”
What is the cause of Hashimoto's thyroiditis?
“Genetic factors in
Hashimoto's disease, iodine, radiation, smoking, and factors such as antibody
titers and lymphocyte cells activates the invasion of autoimmune mechanisms in
the thyroid gland suffers. Lymphocyte invasion occurs and breaks down the cells
of the thyroid antibodies. The cell kill itself so that other thyroid cell
suicide is also a demolition event.In the first period of the disease the
thyroid gland in the neck can be seen. Generally, this period is not noticed by
the patient. The rate of destruction of the cells of the thyroid gland with
insufficient training according to the Permanent hypothyroidism may develop.”
Hashimoto's disease, how is it diagnosed?
“In fact, in the majority of
patients are not seen a complaint. Hormone tests for hypothyroidism screening
and the determination of doubt heard mostly investigated and diagnosed.
However, if the patients may exhibit symptoms of hypothyroidism in development.

fatigue, joint pain, weight gain, dry skin, hair loss, hair , chills,
constipation, menstrual irregularity, infertility, depression, perception
disorders, changes in voice are among the symptoms of hypothyroidism.

in some patients, the edema of the thyroid gland are among the most visible
signs of growth.

subclinical hypothyroidism, TSH may be high.
Hashimoto's disease what are the risks?
Some patients with thyroid
disease, vitiligo, pernicious anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune diseases
such as type 1 diabetes may be accompanied by. With the development of
hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland shrinks. Thyroid function hypothyroidism
suggests that it will be permanent. Viral infections, stress, and depression
symptoms, sex hormones, and a change in the X chromosome are going to get
suspicious of Hashimoto's disease.”
Dr. yeşim Erbil “in the
treatment of disease Hashimoto's thyroid hormone levels are normal, if there is
the need for drug treatment. Although hormones are normal in young patients and
in patients with large goiter treatment can be started. A contraction in volume
of the thyroid is expected within 2-3 months. The sudden growth in the thyroid
gland thyroid lymphoma Hashimoto's disease suggest that it may be. In this
case, a detailed examination must be made.Hashimoto's patients also selenium
