People are being urged to look out for the common warning signs of thyroid disease with an expert is urging not to ignore certain 'tell-tale symptoms'.
Your thyroid is a endocrine gland found in your neck. The gland works to create two hormones - thyroxine and triiodothyronine - responsible for controlling vital bodily functions such as energy levels, weight regulation, internal temperature, and your metabolism.
Thyroid disease may cause the body to have a low or high level of these important hormones, with the two forms meaning a person has an under-active or overactive thyroid.
