How is hyperthyroidism treated? What is the best way to treat hyperthyroidism?

Radioactive iodine: a good way to hyperthyroidism At present, the common methods of hyperthyroidism in Western medicine include drugs, surgery, and radioactive iodine, etc.: 1. Drugs**

The condition can be controlled by oral antithyroid drugs, but it needs to be taken for a long time, and the drug cannot be stopped without authorization, and the ** rate of stopping the drug is about 30 50. Some patients are afraid that long-term medication will harm the body, in fact, this worry is unnecessary, the vast majority of people can tolerate antithyroid drugs, but there are indeed a small number of patients who can have allergies, bone marrow suppression, liver damage, so patients with severe liver disease can not use drugs**. For patients who take oral antithyroid drugs, they must go to the hospital for blood and liver function tests for one to two weeks.

2. Surgery**: Most of the thyroid gland is removed, and the ** rate is high. However, because the deep thyroid gland contains four very small parathyroid glands that regulate calcium and phosphorus metabolism, if the parathyroid glands are accidentally removed due to inexperienced surgery, it will cause lifelong tetany due to low calcium, and may also damage the vagus nerve and cause hoarseness.

3. Radioactive iodine**: Radioactive iodine is made by labeling iodine with radioactive substances, also known as 131 iodine. Hyperthyroidism with 131 iodine has a history of more than half a century, since the first case of hyperthyroidism with this method in 1942, the number of hyperthyroid patients who have received 131 iodine** has reached 2 million in the world, and more than 200,000 hyperthyroidism patients have received 131 iodine** in China.

Director Ma believes that radioactive iodine is the ideal method for hyperthyroidism at present. She elaborated: iodine is the raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormones by the human body, and the iodine in the food is absorbed by the intestines and enters the bloodstream, when they pass through the thyroid gland, almost all of them are taken up by the thyroid gland, and the rest is excreted with urine and feces.

In hyperthyroidism, the thyroid gland is enlarged and the local blood flow is very abundant. At this time, the ability of the thyroid gland to take iodine and use it to synthesize thyroid hormone is hyperactive, so when a hyperthyroid patient takes 131 iodine orally, his thyroid gland will quickly ingest 131 iodine into thyroid cells, and 131 iodine can emit radiation, its range is only 2 mm, so 131 iodine irradiation will only destroy the thyroid gland itself and will not affect the surrounding tissues, which is equivalent to removing part of the thyroid tissue without surgery.

Trouble, thanks!

What should I do if I have hyperthyroidism? Is it antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine-131**, or surgery?

There are currently three types of hyperthyroidism, which are as follows:

1. Drug**: The drug of hyperthyroidism is currently the preferred way in our country, and the advantage is that it is relatively cheap, and the probability of hypothyroidism is relatively small. The disadvantage is that the course of treatment will be relatively long, and at the same time, there is a possibility of medication***.

If you are taking drugs, methimazole is generally commonly used, and propylthiouracil is referred to as propylsulfide, both of which are very classic drugs for hyperthyroidism, and they should be reviewed regularly during the ** period, and the drug dose should be adjusted according to the results;

2. Iodine-131**: It mainly destroys the follicles of the thyroid gland through radiation, so that the thyroid gland produces thyroxine less;

3. Surgery: Surgery to remove part of the thyroid gland is a physical destruction, or to reduce the amount of thyroxine produced, so as to achieve the purpose of hyperthyroidism.

The thyroid diagnosis and treatment center of Chongqing National Defense Hospital.

1. Drugs**: the first choice for all kinds of hyperthyroidism. Regular Western medicine**Hyperthyroidism can be divided into the initial treatment period, the reduction period and the maintenance period, the whole course of the disease is about 1-2 years, and regular laboratory tests are required during the course of the disease, and the medication is adjusted according to the test results.

2. Surgery**: It is generally not easy to use, because there are left and right common carotid arteries next to the thyroid gland, supralaryngeal and recurrent laryngeal nerves, parathyroid glands, and tracheoesophagus, etc., which may cause life-threatening if you are not careful, and are generally only used for goiter that seriously affects normal work and life or has the possibility of cancer. 3. Radioactive iodine (iodine-131)**:

Its advantage is that it has a quick effect, and it can generally receive obvious results in 3-6 months, and the disadvantage is that it is easy to cause lifelong hypothyroidism, which needs to be replaced by lifelong medication. According to statistics, the use of 131 iodine within 5 years leads to more than 60% of patients with lifelong hypothyroidism, and it is currently believed that 131 iodine has a certain impact on fertility, so it is currently believed that 131 iodine ** is considered to be used only by patients who have given birth on the basis of ineffective drug ** and are unwilling or unable to operate.

Through the above analysis, it can be seen that the traditional method is still not fundamentally hyperthyroidism, in this regard, the original "interventional activation blockade" of Guangzhou Logistics Hyperthyroidism Hospital is one of the better ones today, ** is a reasonable compatibility of drugs according to the patient's physique, through collocation, drug interaction, so that the tiny drug factor can quickly act on the lesion, the western drug factor promotes the normal secretion of thyroid hormone, antagonizes the reverse feedback of the lesion, controls the disease, and eliminates the symptoms; Traditional Chinese medicine factors regulate the human immune system in both directions and uproot the root of the disease, so as to achieve the purpose of treating both the symptoms and the root causes.

Hyperthyroidism is a chronic disease of metabolic abnormalities caused by endocrine disorders and visceral insufficiency. Hyperthyroidism is complex, and traditional Chinese medicine believes that hyperthyroidism is caused by the imbalance of the body's internal organs, the deviation of the circulatory system, and the excessive secretion of thyroxine. **Western medicine for hyperthyroidism is large, and the symptoms are not cured, so Western medicine**hyperthyroidism is easy and difficult**.

How to effectively ** hyperthyroidism, Li Xiaoping's traditional Chinese medicine hyperthyroidism prescription is a prescription that has been extracted and concentrated by modern medical technology after more than ten years of experience by Dr. Li Xiaoping's painstaking research. **Hyperthyroidism is based on the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine, which regulates the function of the viscera while treating the symptoms and the root cause, so as to achieve the perfection of the function of the internal organs and promote the repair of the body's own immune system. And target the transmitter gland secretion deviation, and constantly convert and dilute the thyroxine that enters the blood circulation system, so as to completely ** hyperthyroidism.

1. Acupuncture**: For some strong men, or for the big neck disease caused by anger, it is necessary to give him acupuncture to relieve the liver and qi, activate blood and dispel stasis, and soften and disperse knots** Second, acupuncture point implantation: **It is a kind of meridian**, which is based on the five elements**Thyroid disease is to adjust the prosperity and decline of the human body, make up for its deficiencies, and purify its surplus, and finally achieve the harmony of qi and blood, yin and yang, with a short course of treatment and fast results.

For patients with hyperthyroidism in painful eyes, or for children who are relatively strong, acupoint implantation is used. 3. Meridians**: Dredging meridians, activating blood and dissolving stasis, harmonizing qi and blood to achieve yin and yang balance.

Fourth, magnetic beads ear acupoints**: the use of magnetic beads, magnetic beads it has a permanent acupuncture effect, it seeks the meridians and acupoints, if this person has two types of spleen and kidney deficiency, we have to use the tonic method, if this person has endocrine disorders, there are thyroid diseases, we have to paste the corresponding acupuncture points on the ears, such as thyroid acupoints, endocrine acupuncture points, these acupuncture points to him to paste it quite a permanent acupuncture effect, but there is no pain for lesbians, children, the elderly.

The thyroid gland is something that everyone has; Hyperthyroidism is a common condition that not everyone can have. Drugs that reduce thyroxine secretion are mainly used. It is best to take medication under the guidance of a doctor.
