This is Hashimoto's disease where the body becomes allergic to thyroid hormone) and atrophic thyroiditis.
- Treatment with radioactive iodine, radioactive iodine is used to destroy the thyroid gland when the patient has thyroid cancer and nodular goiter.
- Gland removal, with surgery if the patient has thyroid cancer, nodules, etc..
- Inflammation of the gland, called thyroiditis and this is caused by a virus or an attack by the immune system (autoimmune).
- Availability of iodine the gland needs iodine to produce hormones. The same is found in foods we eat. The intake should be adequate and that little or too much iodine can cause or worsen hypothyroidism.
- Congenital hypothyroidism: the baby is born without the presence of the gland or partially developed. Sometimes the gland can be formed in a different place (ectopic thyroid).
