  1. Stem Cell Therapy for Thyroid Issues

  2. Thyroid Disease The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland in the front of the neck. Its primary function is to produce the hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). When the thyroid produces either too much or too little of these hormones, it causes the gland to work inefficiently, leading to disorders.

  3. Types Of Thyroid Diseases There are two broad categories of thyroid disorders: Hypothyroidism: This condition is denoted by a dip in the thyroid hormones in the blood. Hyperthyroidism: In this condition there is an overdrive of the thyroid hormones.

  4. Symptoms Of Thyroid Disease • Some of the common symptoms of hyperthyroidism are: • Increased bowel movements • Slight tremor in the limbs • Rapid heart rate • Unexplained weight loss • Excessive fatigue • Concentration problem

  5. Symptoms Of Thyroid Disease • Some of the common symptoms of hypothyroidism are: • Forgetfulness and confusion in the thought process • Feeling cold all the time • Repeated bouts of constipation • Dry skin • Bloating or fluid retention in the body • Stiffness in joints and muscles along with aches and pains • Excessive or prolonged menstrual bleeding • Depression

  6. What Causes Thyroid Disease Various health conditions can have a negative impact on the functioning of your thyroid glands like Hashimoto's disease, Thyroiditis, Iodine deficiency & Malfunctioning of the other important glands in the system etc.

  7. Treatment For Thyroid Disease • Anti-thyroid drugs • Radioactive iodine • Surgery • Thyroid replacement medication

  8. Stem Cells for Thyroid Disease Stem cells are undifferentiated cells with the property of self-renewal and give rise to highly specialized cells under appropriate local conditions. The use of stem cells in regenerative medicine holds great promise for the treatment of many diseases, including those of the thyroid gland.
