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 been affected. Now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. Can weight loss cause hyperthyroidism?Doctor's answer:
Hello, dieting will never cause hyperthyroidism, but if you diet too hastily and your weight increases too quickly, it is easy to experience the body's maladjustment again. This may lead to liver and kidney damage or a decrease in the body's immunity, sleep disorders, anxiety, and so on. A scientific and effective dieting method, long-term dietary suppression, and long-term endurance of activity, with a weight loss of 1 to 2 pounds per week, is the most skilled.
