About
Hashimoto's Disease |
The thyroid gland wraps around the base of the throat
in a butterfly shape
and secretes thyroid hormone that affects the body's metabolism.
Hashimoto's disease is an hereditary autoimmune disorder in which the
immune
system attacks an organ of its own body, in this case the thyroid.

Hashimoto's
disease |
In Hashimoto's disease, also known as chronic
lymphocytic thyroiditis, your immune system attacks your thyroid gland.
The resulting inflammation often leads to an underactive thyroid gland
(hypothyroidism). Hashimoto's disease is the most common cause of
hypothyroidism in the United States. |
