💡 What is the Thyroid Gland?

The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of the neck. It produces two essential hormones: Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxine (T4). These hormones regulate key bodily functions such as metabolism, heart rate, body temperature, weight control, emotional stability, and energy levels.
When the thyroid produces too much or too little hormone, it can lead to serious health conditions.

Thyroid disorders primarily fall into two categories:
• Hormonal dysfunction – where the thyroid produces either an excessive or insufficient amount of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4)
• Enlargement of the gland – commonly referred to as a “goiter,” this may involve general swelling of the thyroid or the presence of nodules and lumps

Overactive thyroid function can lead to hyperthyroidism, while underactive function may result in hypothyroidism.

🟥 Hyperthyroidism

Definition: The thyroid gland produces excessive T3 and T4, accelerating the body’s metabolism.

Common Symptoms:

Palpitations, hand tremors, insomnia, mood swings
Unexplained weight loss despite increased appetite
Excessive sweating, heat intolerance, irregular menstruation
Enlarged thyroid, pressure in the throat, bulging eyes

Main Causes:

Graves’ Disease – an autoimmune condition
Thyroiditis due to viral/bacterial infection
Excessive iodine intake (e.g., seaweed, kelp)
Thyroid nodules or tumors producing excess hormones

🟦 Hypothyroidism

Definition: The thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones, causing the metabolism to slow down.

Common Symptoms:

Fatigue, weight gain, Shiver
Depression, brain fog, slow reaction time
Heavy or irregular menstruation, constipation, dry skin
Slow heart rate, hair loss, facial puffiness

Main Causes:

Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis – the most common cause, autoimmune related
Iodine deficiency or excessive intake
Thyroid surgery or radiation therapy
Medications such as lithium or anti-arrhythmics

🧬 What Health Risks Can Untreated Thyroid Disorders Cause?

Type	Possible Complications
Hyperthyroidism	Atrial Fibrillation, Heart Failure, Thyroid Storm, Osteoporosis, Infertility
Hypothyroidism	High Cholesterol, Cardiovascular Disease, Depression, Infertility, Myxedema Coma

The thyroid is a vital regulator of your body’s metabolic and hormonal balance. Unmanaged thyroid dysfunction can seriously impair your quality of life or even become life-threatening.

👩‍⚕️ Who Should Get This Test?

Those experiencing fatigue, anxiety, palpitations, cold or heat intolerance
Individuals with neck swelling or changes in voice
Women planning pregnancy or currently pregnant
People with a family history of thyroid or autoimmune diseases
Individuals with high-stress lifestyles or frequent consumption of iodine-rich foods

📊 Thyroid Disorders in Hong Kong

According to the Hong Kong Cancer Registry, thyroid cancer ranked 9th among the top ten most common cancers in 2022. Based on the crude incidence rate, there were approximately 14 new cases per 100,000 people in the population.
Women are significantly more affected, with a female-to-male incidence ratio of approximately 3.6 to 1.

As early-stage thyroid cancer often presents with no obvious symptoms, regular check-ups are essential for early detection and timely treatment.
