  11. Symptoms of overt hyperthyroidism • Anxiety • Emotional lability • Weakness • Tremor • Palpitations • Heat intolerance • Increased perspiration • Weight loss despite a normal or increased appetite, gain weight • Hyperdefecation (not diarrhea) • Urinary frequency • Oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea • Gynecomastia • Erectile dysfunction Isolated symptoms and signs: • Unexplained weight loss • New onset atrial fibrillation Myopathy • Menstrual disorders • gynecomastia. • Osteoporosis • Hypercalcemia • Heart failure • Premature atrial contractions • shortness of breath • Deterioration in glycemic control in patients with previously diagnosed diabetes.

  12. Signs of overt hyperthyroidism • Hyperactivity and rapid speech. • Lid retraction and lid lag • warm and moist skin • Thin and fine hair • Tachycardia • Atrial fibrillation • Systolic hypertension may be present • Hyperdynamicprecordium • Tremor • Proximal muscle weakness • Hyperreflexia Only in patients with Graves' disease: 1) Graves ophthalmopathy • Exophthalmos • Periorbital and conjunctival edema • Limitation of eye movement 2) pretibialmyxedema • Infiltrative dermopathy

  13. Diagnosis Low serum TSH High serum T4 and or high serum T3

  14. Mild (subclinical) hyperthyroidism Normal T4 and T3 Suppressed TSH

  15. Subclinical hyperthyroidism • Mild to moderate iodine deficiency • Females • Smokers • Elderly Prevalence in the community in older than 55 yrears: 0.7%-12.4%

  16. Differential diagnosis of subclinical hyperthyroidism • Central hypothyroidism • Nonthyroidal illness • Recovery from hyperthyroidism, including thyroiditis

  17. Subclinical hyperthyroidism Increased risk of mortality : Small Increases with • Age • degree of TSH suppression
