According to US statistics on gland issues, 1 in 8 women have thyroid disease, and half of them ignore it. Hypothyroidism is a condition that affects more than 90% of people with thyroid disorders.
Your body stops functioning normally, which is the main issue with thyroid disorders.This is due to the gland's close relationship with the body as a whole.
Like every other gland in the body, the thyroid releases essential hormones.The hormones T3 and T4 (whose names derive from the amount of iodine they contain) control various bodily processes, including body temperature, energy expenditure, and heart rate.
Also, thyroid acts on the digestive system, nervous system and the
female reproductive system.Because the activity of this gland is much
related to the ovaries, thyroid disorders affect 7 times more women than
men.
