    Glossary Thyroid Function

    regulates hormone production affecting metabolism and energy levels

    Thyroid function refers to how well the thyroid gland, located in the neck, produces and regulates hormones that control metabolism, energy levels, and overall growth and development. Proper thyroid function is crucial for maintaining body temperature, heart rate, and weight. Abnormal thyroid function can lead to conditions such as hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), which can have significant health impacts, including hair loss and changes in skin texture.
