Am I a symptom of hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism?

Got hyperthyroidism, what performance may the body have?

First, the body suddenly becomes very thin

In the process of preventing hyperthyroidism, if you find yourself suddenly losing weight, don't be complacent, thinking that it is caused by successful weight loss, but it is not. Sometimes the body becomes thinner for no reason, or it may be caused by hyperthyroidism. For healthy patients, hyperthyroidism is very easy to make you thin in a short time.

Second, exophthalmos looks scary.

If there are hyperthyroidism patients around you, you will find that their eyes are scary and their exophthalmos are very obvious, which is a unique performance of hyperthyroidism patients. Observing the eyes and eyeballs can also help you to judge whether you have hyperthyroidism to some extent.

Third, it is easy to get flustered and the heart beats faster.

In life, under normal circumstances, if you don't exercise or keep your mood stable, your heart rate will not change much, but if you suddenly find that your heart rate is accelerating, it will reach 120 beats per minute. At the same time, behind this rapid heartbeat, you are flustered, which is probably caused by abnormal changes in thyroid hormones. For patients with hyperthyroidism, it is more prone to palpitation and rapid heartbeat.

Fourth, goiter.

Under normal circumstances, the thyroid gland will not increase, but if you find that your thyroid gland has increased, even accompanied by a lump, and the gland changes are very obvious, you need to consider whether it is caused by hyperthyroidism.

Fifth, you can't control your emotions.

Sometimes, if you seldom get angry, but suddenly find that your mood fluctuates greatly, for a while, your temper becomes very hot, and you may get angry because of some trivial things. In this case, it is also necessary to consider whether there is a problem with thyroid hormone. With the appearance of thyroid diseases, you will lose control of your emotions.

Sixth, it is easy to sweat.

Generally speaking, if you exercise vigorously, it is easy to cause sweating. But if you don't do strenuous exercise, you will sweat a lot, get inexplicably hot, and then sweat profusely. This situation may indicate that your metabolism is in an abnormal state, which is what hyperthyroidism patients have.

Suffering from hyperthyroidism has a great influence on health. Knowing the possible abnormal manifestations of hyperthyroidism patients in time can help you to better carry out preventive health care. I hope the abnormal changes of the above five hyperthyroidism patients will help you, scientifically adjust and improve your nursing and prevent diseases. If not, congratulations, which means you are healthy.
