The thyroid produces, stores, and transfers hormones into the bloodstream, which is like a tiny, butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck. The hormones produced and used up for many essential body functions such as almost all of the metabolic processes in your body, regulating the rate at which humans burn calories, and deciding how fast the heartbeats.
- In addition, thyroid disorder is synonymous with signs and symptoms such as:
- Gain or Loss of Weight
- Increased heat or cold temperature sensitivity
- Abnormal bowel movement
- Irregularities in Menstruation
These symptoms can affect your mood
-
