Thyroid Treatment Hospital in Himatnagar
The thyroid gland in the neck controls the body’s energy and metabolism. An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) causes tiredness, weight gain and feeling cold; an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) causes weight loss, palpitations and anxiety. Both are common, especially in women, and easily diagnosed with a blood test. At Pluto Hospital, Himatnagar, thyroid problems are treated by physician Dr. Charudatt Gor.
Understanding the Condition

Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid problem and is usually lifelong but easily controlled with one tablet a day. Hyperthyroidism needs medicines and sometimes other treatment. A swelling in the neck (goitre) or a thyroid lump should be checked with sonography.

Common Questions
Thyroid FAQs
Do I need thyroid tablets for life?

When should I take thyroid tablets?
Usually in the morning on an empty stomach, 30–60 minutes before food or tea.
Can thyroid cause weight gain?
Yes, an underactive thyroid can cause some weight gain, which improves with treatment.
Is thyroid testing important in pregnancy?
Yes. Thyroid levels affect the baby’s development, so testing is advised early in pregnancy.
