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, and now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. I have a slightly enlarged thyroid nodule.Doctor's answer:
Thyroid nodules are generally treatable if the nodules are small and the patient does not exhibit obvious symptoms such as aversion to cold or heat, weight loss, increased appetite, or heightened mental excitement. It is recommended to first check the thyroid function. If the thyroid function is normal, regular follow-up and careful observation may be sufficient. If the thyroid function is abnormal, consideration can be given to using medications to suppress or enhance thyroid hormone levels. Specific medication usage should follow medical advice.
