THYROID DISEASES – an overview:
Thyroid diseases are conditions that affect the thyroid gland (a butterfly-shaped gland in the neck that produces hormones that regulate metabolism.) The most common thyroid diseases are hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) and hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). These conditions can result from various factors, including autoimmune disorders, iodine deficiency, and genetic predispositions. 

Types of Thyroid Diseases & their Ayurvedic treatment:

Hyperthyroidism (Overactive Thyroid): The thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone, leading to a sped-up metabolism. Graves' disease is a common autoimmune cause of hyperthyroidism. 
AYURVEDA considers it under BHASMAGNI / VISHAMAGNI / DHATU KSHYA (Tissue degeneration because of over active/ burning metabolism) and treats it with VRINGHAN RASAYAN herbal medicines and PANCHKARMA.

Hypothyroidism (Underactive Thyroid): The thyroid gland produces too little thyroid hormone, causing a slowed-down metabolism. Hashimoto's thyroiditis is an autoimmune cause of hypothyroidism. 
AYURVEDA considers it as a low metabolism disease followed by Hormones depletion, and not the other way round. (That is why Thyroxin tablets can never cure/reverse hypothyroidism) Thus the root cause AGNIMANDHYA is treated here with herbs that enhance metabolism. We have seen reversal and complete cure of hypothyroidism in many of our patients.

Thyroiditis: Inflammation of the thyroid gland, which can be temporary or permanent. Thyroiditis can be caused by autoimmune disorders, infections, or other factors. 
AYURVEDA covers it under AMAVATA (auto-immune condition) with VISHAMAGNI (deranged metabolism) and treats accordingly.

Goiter: An enlarged thyroid gland, which can be a symptom of both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. 
Thyroid Nodules: Lumps in the thyroid gland, which can be benign or cancerous. 
AYURVEDA considers enlarged glands and nodules as GRANTHI and treats with gland mass reducing herbs like Kachnaar, Brahmi etc.

Thyroid Cancer: Cancerous growth in the thyroid gland. 
Thyroid cancer is a serious disease and should be treated in priority.
Patients should avoid self-medication and social media remedies and go only to qualified and experienced specialists.

AYURVEDA treats this as GRANTHI-ARBUDA and there are researches of Ayurveda medicines providing a long term remission in cancers with safer medicines.
