Hyperthyroidism develops when the body is exposed to excessive amounts of thyroid hormone. In its mildest form, hyperthyroidism may not cause recognizable symptoms. More often, however, the symptoms are discomforting, disabling, or even life-threatening. This fact sheet provides information for patients on hyperthyroidism, including symptoms, causes, diagnosis, and treatment.
