1. Relationship between thyroid gland and various diseases The thyroid gland is one of the important organs in the body, although it is small and inconspicuous, it does carry the normal operation of the whole body system and plays a very important role. It has been reported that excessive iodine supplementation with potassium iodate is an important reason for the high incidence of thyroid cancer. The incidence of various cancers is increasing worldwide, but the fact that the incidence of thyroid cancer is prominently increasing in China cannot exclude excessive iodine supplementation as one of the reasons.
Despite the fact that thyroid cancer is the least toxic cancer among all cancers, people still talk about cancer.
Many epidemiological investigation reports and animal experimental results show that excessive iodine intake has an impact on the growth and development of offspring, for details, please refer to the relevant literature.
2. Excessive iodine supplementation is the main reason for the increased incidence of hypothyroidism The worldwide experience of iodine supplementation tells us that excessive iodine supplementation is the main reason for the increased incidence of hypothyroidism, and it is becoming increasingly obvious. At present, it is found that not many patients have typical symptoms of hypothyroidism, while there are many patients with subclinical hypothyroidism. With the passage of time, the incidence of hypothyroidism patients will become higher and more harmful.
3, hypothyroidism and depression are closely related Among the thyroid diseases, the more common are “hypothyroidism” and “hyperthyroidism”. The symptoms of “hyperthyroidism” are more obvious and well known, while “hypothyroidism”, because of the hidden nature of the symptoms, unknowingly causes more harm to the health of patients. “The full name of hypothyroidism is “hypothyroidism”, which refers to the inability of the thyroid gland to produce enough thyroid hormones to meet the needs of the body. It is easy to imagine that if the body does not have enough thyroid hormones, the energy metabolism of other parts of the body and organs will also be weakened, and it is not surprising that patients often go to other departments for treatment. It is not surprising that patients often go to other departments, such as menopause, depression, indigestion, anemia, slow-onset nephritis, infertility in women of childbearing age, and habitual abortion, which delay the best time for treatment. With the accumulation of time, the harm of hypothyroidism will further increase, leading to lower heart rate, dyslipidemia, constipation, depression, etc., and even let the body form organic lesions, leading to more serious dysfunctions and diseases of the body.
For “hypothyroidism”, women in particular need to pay attention. About 7% to 8% of women in the general population suffer from hypothyroidism, and the current treatment for hypothyroidism is not satisfactory. 10% to 20% of women over 35 years old suffer from thyroid disease. This is a high-risk group for hypothyroidism. Because hypothyroidism can be a gradual process over a period of 5-10 years, it is often easy for patients to ignore it. For example, when women around menopause notice that they are losing vitality, they may think that it is a normal sign of aging. This is why it is necessary to check the thyroid function regularly.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. And there is no good way to treat patients with elevated antibodies, so endocrinology consultation is often requested for joint treatment.
So that you can understand in the process of vitiligo treatment, why to the first diagnosis of patients to check thyroxine and antibody reasons, especially the development of faster area large patients, children paranoid, female patients, is to see if there is a thyroid problem, if there is a problem, must be timely treatment, otherwise how to treat vitiligo again, and the thyroid problem is not solved, vitiligo is not easy to cure.
In addition, it is also to see if thyroxine is elevated, especially children, if higher than normal, diet must control the intake of iodine, this time try to buy non-iodized salt to eat, eat less seaweed nori and other iodine-rich food.
