Thyrotoxicosis

 

Thyrotoxicosis is a common endocrine disorder characterized by an overactive thyroid gland, leading to excessive production of thyroid hormones. The most common cause of hyperthyroidism is an autoimmune condition known as Graves' disease, where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland, causing it to produce too much thyroid hormone. Symptoms of hyperthyroidism may include weight loss, increased appetite, rapid heartbeat (tachycardia), palpitations, sweating, heat intolerance, tremors, anxiety, irritability, fatigue, muscle weakness, and changes in menstrual patterns.
