FAQ's

Is thyroid disease a communicable disease?

No, thyroid is not a communicable disease. However, there have been instances that the disease has been passed on from mother to child through genetic mutation.

How Important is Thyroid in your well-being?

The thyroid gland is responsible for producing thyroid hormone that controls every cell, tissue, and organs in your body. If the thyroid gland stops operating at usual speed, it can produce a bulk amount of thyroid hormone, which causes the body system to speed up (a condition termed as hyperthyroidism) or can create too minimal thyroid hormone slowing down the body systems (a condition known as hypothyroidism). If you suffer from thyroid disease, leaving it untreated can lead to drastic effects like elevated cholesterol levels, subsequent heart disease, infertility, and osteoporosis. Some studies also claim that there’s a strong genetic connection between the thyroid disease and onset of other autoimmune diseases like diabetes, arthritis, and anemia.

How to determine if you’re suffering from thyroid disease?

Identifying the symptoms of the thyroid disorder isn’t an easy task as most symptoms are hidden and resemble the signs of other diseases and conditions. To check if you suffer from a thyroid problem, you can ask your doctor for a TSH (thyroid-stimulating-hormone) test - a simple blood test that helps you verify your thyroid gland’s condition. Since there have been cases of thyroid passing through genes, a thorough examination of your family and review of their medical history are two additional measures you must undertake to rule out the possibility of them suffering from thyroid.

What are the different types of thyroid problems?

The prominent types are hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, Plummer’s Disease, thyroid cancer, toxic adenomas and Graves' Disease. Diabetologists are specially trained endocrinologists specialised in treating diabetes mellitus- a condition caused due to low insulin production in the body.

What are the probable chances of thyroid cancer recurring after surgery and treatment?

Thyroid cancer can return in some cases. Post-treatment or surgery, your doctor and endocrinologist will keep a tab on your health, monitor your signs of recurrent disease through blood tests or ultrasound examinations.
