The overproduction of thyroid hormones by an overactive thyroid causes hyperthyroidism.
The thyroid gland, located in the front of the neck, produces the hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which regulate the body’s metabolic rate by assisting in the formation of protein ribonucleic acid (RNA) and increasing oxygen absorption in each cell. Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), produced by the pituitary gland, regulates the production of these hormones. Hyperthyroidism develops when thyroid hormone production increases.
Thyroid hormone levels in the blood that are too high raise the body’s metabolism, causing both mental and physical symptoms.
