The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped endocrine gland located at the base of your neck, wrapping around your windpipe. Often called the body's "thermostat," this small but mighty gland regulates crucial functions through two key hormones:
Thyroxine (T4)
Primary thyroid hormone
Contains 4 iodine atoms
Converted to active T3
Triiodothyronine (T3)
Active form of thyroid hormone
Contains 3 iodine atoms
Directly affects metabolism
Did You Know? Women are 5-8 times more likely than men to develop thyroid problems, especially during hormonal transitions like pregnancy and menopause.
Two Sides of Thyroid Dysfunction
Hyperthyroidism (Overactive)
Thyroid produces too much hormone
Metabolism speeds up
Affects 1% of population
Common causes: Graves' disease, nodules
Hypothyroidism (Underactive)
Thyroid produces too little hormone
Metabolism slows down
Affects 5% of population
Common cause: Hashimoto's thyroiditis
"Thyroid imbalance can make weight management feel impossible - you might gain weight despite dieting or lose weight while eating more," explains Dr. Asma Arshad, our thyroid specialist with 15+ years experience.
Root Causes of Thyroid Disorders
Hyperthyroidism Triggers
Graves' disease: Autoimmune attack overstimulates thyroid (70% of cases)
Toxic nodules: Lumps that produce excess hormone
Thyroiditis: Inflammation causing hormone leakage
Excess iodine: From medications or contrast dyes
Hypothyroidism Triggers
Hashimoto's disease: Immune system slowly destroys thyroid
Iodine deficiency: Essential for hormone production
Radiation treatment: For cancers near neck area
Certain medications: Lithium, amiodarone, etc.
Pregnancy: Postpartum thyroiditis affects 5-10% women

"I was having nasty stomach pains for months and I tried every single doc in my city Peshawar but none helped to relieve my pain. One of my friend told me to try this homeopathic clinic in rwp.I checked out their website and gave them a call. The doc took the time to understand my symptoms even though it was just over the phone and figure out exactly what was going on. Didn't rush me at all like other docs.Doc prescribed some homeo medicines for me and had them delivered right to my door. They were super easy to take. The medicine tbey gave me was so gentle. I was worried it wouldn't work but sure enough, within a couple weeks the pain was way better. A few more weeks and it was completely gone! I'm totally healed up now thanks to this doc. I'd highly recommend consulting with them virtually if you're looking for natural healing. Five stars for saving me from this stomach issue!"
