Did you know that 1 in 10 women suffer from hypothyroidism?
The thyroid, a butterfly-shaped gland at the front of the neck, might not seem like much to look at, but when it is malfunctioning, it can wreak havoc on your health.
It has been estimated that about 42 million people in India suffer from thyroid diseases. These include hypo and hyperthyroidism, iodine deficiency disorders, Hashimoto’s.
There are two forms—hypo and hyperthyroidism. The former is more common with symptoms such as weight gain, tiredness and slow metabolism. The latter, on the other, is less common and has exactly opposite symptoms, such as weight loss and hyperactivity.
