Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has become problematic, and now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. How is hypothyroidism treated?Doctor's answer:
Chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, commonly seen in middle-aged women aged 30-50, generally has a subtle onset and progresses slowly, often without specific symptoms, making it difficult for patients to notice. The main manifestation is thyroid enlargement, particularly in the early stages of the disease. In addition to medication, mental regulation, proper arrangement of daily life and work, and a balanced diet are also emphasized. It is advisable to eat light and consume fresh vegetables rich in vitamins.
