What should I do if I have hyperthyroidism? I don t want to take Western medicine for fear of hypoth

There are three main methods commonly used in China: drugs, radioactive iodine (iodine-131) and surgery.

1. Drugs are 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, the course of the disease needs to be tested regularly, and according to the results of the test to adjust the medication, simple Western medicine **easy**, combined with traditional Chinese medicine ** can reduce ***, improve the **rate, it is recommended to use the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine**.

2. Radioactive iodine (iodine 131)** has the advantage of fast effect, generally 3-6 months can receive obvious results, the disadvantage is that it is easy to cause lifelong hypothyroidism, and it 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.

3. Surgery 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.

4. You can consider the drug (integrated Chinese and Western medicine)** method.

Iodine deficiency...Eat more sea fish, kelp, etcThe salt we eat now also contains iodine.

What is iodine supplementation for hyperthyroidism? Don't mislead people, hyperthyroidism** first of all, you have to limit iodine intake! The diet should be supplemented with sufficient calories and nutrients and proper rest, and those who are nervous and insomnia can take Valium.

If you take medicine, you have to take propylthiouracil, or tamidazole and hyperthyroidism. Radiation therapy or surgery may also be used.

Hypothyroidism often occurs in the process of hyperthyroidism, sometimes it is related to excessive drug dosage or untimely reduction of dose, mostly transient, and timely adjustment of medication regimen can be done; If hypothyroidism is very susceptible, it is necessary to pay attention to the relevant antibodies of the thyroid gland and the iodine uptake rate of the thyroid gland to understand whether it is hyperthyroidism caused by chronic lymphocytic thyroid thyroid, and its final outcome may be hypothyroidism, and most of these patients need to travel for a long time or even for life**.

It is recommended to see the endocrinology clinic regularly and adjust the ** plan in time. **Excessive heading can lead to increased proptosis, and neck thickness.

Hello dear, see your problem, I am happy to serve you, here for you to find out :* * hyperthyroidism Western medicine antithyroid drugs ** the most serious *** is leukopenia, agranulocytosis, due to too few granulocytes systemic resistance significantly decreased, and then led to serious infections throughout the body, which is a great threat to life.

Therefore, during the medication, attention should be paid to the occurrence of agranulocytosis, if detected in time, there are more chances of **. Agranulocytosis usually occurs during the first 3 months of medication, but it can also occur at any time after medication.

Therefore, special vigilance should be exercised during the period of 1 to 3 months of medication. Suggestions: Excessive secretion of thyroid hormone during hyperthyroidism promotes the metabolism of three major nutrients, namely sperm, fat and protein, and accelerates oxidation.

The body's heat production and heat dissipation increase significantly, and the basal metabolic rate is abnormally high, so it is necessary to increase energy every day to correct the energy expenditure in the body. Based on the above reasons, the diet must pay attention to high calorie, high protein, high vitamins and supplement calcium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, magnesium, etc. All the best (

Among the foods that are eaten daily, kelp, seaweed, sea cabbage, marine fish, shrimp, crab, and shellfish are rich in iodine. Excess iodine is detrimental to the condition and manifests itself as:

1) Aggravation of hyperthyroidism: Since iodine is the main raw material for the manufacture of thyroid hormones, long-term use of iodine can aggravate hyperthyroidism, and even iodine-derived hyperthyroidism can occur.

2) Unfavorable to **: Eating too much iodine may also harden the thyroid tissue, causing the disease to be prolonged and not healing, affecting antithyroid drugs**, iodine overdose prolongs the time of hyperthyroidism, decreases the rate, and the ** drug of antithyroid drugs for hyperthyroidism drops to 20% 35% after excessive iodine supplementation.

Therefore, patients with hyperthyroidism should avoid eating iodine-containing foods such as kelp, seaweed, and marine fish, and iodine-containing traditional Chinese medicines such as seaweed and kelp should be prohibited. Patients should consume non-iodized salt. If it is iodized salt, the iodized salt should be fried at high temperature for a period of time before consumption to allow the iodine to volatilize.

Patients with hyperthyroidism should pay attention to the following during medication and diet

1) Taboo spicy food: spicy seeds, raw onions, raw garlic;

2) Forbidden seafood: kelp, shrimp, hairtail;

3) Strong tea, coffee, tobacco and alcohol are contraindicated;

4) Keep your mind calm and prevent fatigue.

Patients with hyperthyroidism should avoid iodine-containing foods! Here's why:

1) Iodine is one of the important raw materials for the thyroid gland to synthesize thyroid hormones, the content of thyroid hormone in patients with hyperthyroidism is higher than that of normal people, if iodine-containing food is given, the hyperfunctional thyroid gland will synthesize more hormones, and then aggravate the condition.

2) The bioavailability of iodine in the thyroid gland of patients with hyperthyroidism is significantly higher than that of normal people, and even if a small dose of iodine-containing food is given, the sick thyroid gland may produce more thyroid hormones than normal, aggravating the condition.

3) After the normal body consumes too much iodine-containing food, the excess iodine will be excreted from the body, so as not to produce excessive thyroid hormones. However, patients with hyperthyroidism have abnormal hyperthyroid function and dysfunctional self-protection mechanism, which not only cannot remove excess raw materials, but will overuse these iodine to synthesize a large amount of thyroid hormones, which will worsen the condition.

It can be seen that patients with hyperthyroidism should not only not supplement iodine-containing foods, but should avoid any iodine-containing foods and drugs as much as possible. Seafood has the highest iodine content in food, especially kelp, jellyfish, seaweed, moss and mussels, and patients with hyperthyroidism should also be cautious about using iodine wine, iodine-containing throat tablets, iodine-containing contrast agents and other drugs.

There have been a lot of dietary problems upstairs, the most important is iodine-free or low-iodine diet, now our domestic salt iodization has been adjusted, non-iodized salt can be bought on the market, as for iodized salt with high temperature is not treated, or use non-iodized salt. I think your hyperthyroidism is always the best isotope for you.

Deserve it hahahahahaha
