✋ Hyperthyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland becomes overactive ????‍♀️, meaning it is more active than normal. In the video I show you how to know if you have hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism can appear in men and women, but it most frequently occurs in women between the ages of 20 and 40. What are the signs and symptoms that I have hyperthyroidism? If you experience unintentional weight loss, even when your appetite and food intake remain the same or even increase, this may be a symptom of hyperthyroidism. If you have a rapid heartbeat, known as tachycardia - usually more than 100 beats per minute, this is a symptom of hyperthyroidism. If your heartbeat is irregular, known as arrhythmia, you may have hyperthyroidism. Other symptoms that you may have hyperthyroidism include: heart palpitations, increased appetite, nervousness, anxiety, and irritability, tremor (usually a fine shaking in your hands and fingers), excessive sweating, changes in menstrual patterns (one of the specific symptoms of hyperthyroidism in women), increased sensitivity to heat, changes in bowel patterns, especially more frequent bowel movements. You may also have swelling at the base of your neck due to an enlarged thyroid gland (goiter), fatigue or muscle weakness, and trouble sleeping. As well as thinning skin and fine, brittle hair. #hyperthyroidism #symptoms #health ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: https://goo.gl/u83kTC Facebook: https://goo.gl/Aph1nK Twitter: https://goo.gl/OHqUjK Instagram https://goo.gl/MQPsog ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Legal information.
