Hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism Treatment in Indore – Expert Thyroid Care by Dr. Abhyudaya Verma
Hyperthyroidism, or overactive thyroid, is a hormonal condition where the thyroid gland produces excess thyroid hormones, leading to a fast metabolism, weight loss, anxiety, and irregular heartbeat. At SEWA Superspeciality Endocrinology & Women Care Centre in Indore, we provide advanced diagnosis and personalized treatment for thyroid disorders under the expert care of Dr. Abhyudaya Verma, leading endocrinologist in Indore.
What is Hyperthyroidism?
The thyroid gland, located in the neck, produces T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine) hormones that control the body’s metabolism. In hyperthyroidism, the gland becomes overactive and produces too much hormone, accelerating the body’s systems.
Common Causes of Hyperthyroidism
Graves’ Disease (autoimmune disorder)
Thyroid nodules (toxic multinodular goiter)
Thyroiditis (inflammation of the thyroid)
Excessive iodine intake
Overmedication with thyroid hormone (thyroxine)
Symptoms of Hyperthyroidism
If you have hyperthyroidism, you may experience:
Unexplained weight loss
Rapid or irregular heartbeat (palpitations)
Nervousness, anxiety, or irritability
Tremors in hands or fingers
Sweating and heat intolerance
Increased appetite
Frequent bowel movements or diarrhea
Fatigue and sleep disturbances
Thinning hair or hair loss
Menstrual changes or fertility issues
How is Hyperthyroidism Diagnosed?
Diagnosis involves:
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) test – usually low
Free T3 and T4 tests – elevated
Thyroid antibody tests (for Graves’ disease)
Thyroid scan or ultrasound (if nodules are suspected)
At SEWA Centre, we use advanced hormone testing and imaging for accurate diagnosis.
Treatment for Hyperthyroidism
Treatment depends on the cause and severity:
Anti-thyroid medications (like Methimazole or Carbimazole)
Radioactive iodine therapy (to shrink or destroy overactive thyroid cells)
Beta-blockers (to control symptoms like rapid heart rate)
Surgery (thyroidectomy) in some cases
Continuous monitoring and thyroid function tests
