i. Hypothyroidism is a hormonal disease that results from less secretion of the thyroid gland.
ii. The thyroid is a gland around the region of the neck.
iii. Thyroid gland's main function is the secretion of thyroxine hormone, commonly referred to
as thyroid hormone.
iv. It leads to a disorder frequently referred to as hypothyroidism when the secretion of these h
ormones from the thyroid glands is changed.
v. Advanced robotic thyroidectomy is implemented to cure this issue by performing the thyroi
dectomy process in Bangalore.
6. Causes of hypothyroidism
The factors contributing to the condition of the thyroid gland under thyroid activity
Thyroiditis-Thyroid gland swelling leading to low thyroid hormone secretion is called thyroiditis.
The inflammation may result from any virus or bacteria-related infection.
Congenital hypothyroidism— Thyroid gland does not operate from birth. Thus the thyroid hormon
e secretion is changed in an person from birth.
Hashimoto's disease-It is an autoimmune disorder in which body cells begin to attack cells of their
own. The immune system attacks the thyroid gland cell resulting in its mechanism being changed.
Medication-Sometimes medications used to treat other illnesses may have a side effect on the thyr
oid hormone, leading in a decreased secretion.

Iodine imbalance -Regular iodine-deficient foods can lead to hypothyroidism. Iodine is
essential for maintaining the secretion and function of Thyroid hormone.
These are the few causes of hypothyroidism. Other than this many other factors can als
o contribute towards it.
8. Symptoms of Hypothyroidism
The thyroid hormone is essential for the metabolism of our body. In addition to carrying out its f
unctioning, it also regulates other glands and their secretion.
Therefore the symptoms of hypothyroidism cover a wide aspect.
An abnormal rise in the body's weight.
Constipation or uneven motion of the intestine is also an indication.
Frequent tiredness or fatigue resulting in constant weakness.
Difficulty in speech, slow heart rate, and reduced body movements.
Regular pain in joints and muscles, sometimes muscle cramps are also observed.
Irregular sleep cycle or conditions of insomnia.
High cholesterol level in the body.
Females may also suffer from heavy periods.
Anemia and depression are also symptoms of hypothyroidism.
9. Symptoms and signs are prevalent to all, but some may develop various symptoms. Therefore, ot
her symptoms may also occur as thyroid hormone regulates other hormones. The confirmation of
hypothyroidism can only be given by a specialist doctor.
Thyroidectomy-an efficient remedy
Sometimes greatly reduces the secretion of the thyroid gland. The reduction in the thyroid gland
results in their increased size. Therefore the process of thyroidectomy is conducted to remove th
e enlarged part of the gland.
• The thyroidectomy method is vital or necessary to prevent the development of cancer in the e
nlarged region.
• To remove the enlargement or goitre that is not cancerous.
• To further stop infection of the other cells of the gland.
10. Bangalore's thyroidectomy is the best. To carry out the process, the use of robotic thyroidectomy
is much more advanced and safe.
Conclusion : The thyroid gland is the most important gland for the overall metabolism. The defec
ts suspected in the form of any symptoms should not be neglected and one should consult a docto
r as soon as any symptoms are noticed to get proper assistance regarding the medication against t
he appearing symptoms.
