What causes women's big necks?

Goiter is a thyroid disease that affects many people. We will find that more women suffer from the disease than men. It is also a disease that has a particularly serious impact on the body. When patients suffer from this disease, it will not only cause physical harm, but also have a serious impact on the patient's life and mood. It must be treated in time after the disease. Let's take a look at what is going on with women's goiter.

Not only are women more likely to develop thyroid disease, but they also often develop it at a younger age. Currently, most of the patients who come to our hospital for treatment are teenagers. According to medical analysis, thyroid disease may be related to factors such as genetics, environmental radiation, and high-iodine diet. For women, it is related to changes in her internal environment and changes in estrogen and progesterone levels, which are related to survival pressure. Therefore, women should not accept depression, fatigue, or pain as a normal part of life. If these symptoms are caused by a thyroid disorder, it can be easily diagnosed with a blood test and can be treated very effectively with medication.

Thyroid nodules are actually very common. Ultrasound examinations have found that the incidence of thyroid nodules in healthy people is 18%-67%, among which 20%-44% are women and 17%-19% are men. Among the many thyroid nodules, malignant lesions are not common, so there is no need to panic if thyroid nodules are found. However, if a thyroid nodule is found, regardless of size, you should go to a hospital specialist for treatment in a timely manner. Although malignant lesions are uncommon, preoperative diagnosis is difficult, so choosing the treatment method is also difficult. For a single nodule, if it is considered to be an inflammatory tumor and anti-inflammatory and anti-tuberculosis treatment is ineffective, a biopsy should be performed in time to confirm the diagnosis or a surgical biopsy should be performed; if it is a congenital mass, surgery should be performed as soon as possible in principle.

The above is about what is goiter in women. This disease is also common in patients in life. After getting the disease, you must pay attention to timely treatment, and during the treatment, you must adjust it through many aspects. The patient’s daily diet is particularly important, and diet therapy methods are also beneficial during the treatment.
