Can hyperthyroidism cause diarrhea?

Hyperthyroidism can potentially cause diarrhea.
Patients with hyperthyroidism produce too much thyroid hormone, which can cause the body to develop hypermetabolism. As the body’s metabolism increases, intestinal motility increases, leading to more frequent stools or diarrhea, so hyperthyroidism may cause diarrhea.
In addition, hyperthyroidism may also cause symptoms such as inattention, irritability, irritability, palpitations, hand tremors, insomnia, hyperphagia, fatigue, protruding eyes, etc. Female patients may have scanty menstruation or even amenorrhea, and male patients may have impotence, loss of libido and other symptoms.
When symptoms of hyperthyroidism appear, it is recommended to go to the hospital and ask the doctor to make a judgment based on your own specific situation, and it is not advisable to make a blind judgment on your own.
