What causes formaldehyde?

Hypothyroidism is a common disease with many causes, and it is closely related to family heredity. Such patients often have abnormal thyroid development and thyroid lesions. In addition, hypothalamic lesions, anterior pituitary dysfunction, etc. are all important causes of hypothyroidism. Understanding the specific cause will help to improve the treatment effect and help with symptomatic treatment.

What causes formaldehyde?

1. Thyroid abnormalities:

This type of symptom often has a familial genetic tendency and may usually occur in infancy. It is a relatively rare cause of hypothyroidism. Common thyroid abnormalities include thyroid hypoplasia and thyroid ectopicness.

2. Thyroid disease:

The cause of this type of hypothyroidism is insufficient secretion of thyroid hormone due to thyroid lesions. There are many factors that cause thyroid lesions, such as chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, endemic goiter, sarcoidosis, spontaneous hypothyroidism in hyperthyroidism, etc.

3. Hypothalamic lesions:

Due to some reasons, the hypothalamus function is impaired, which causes a decrease in thyrotropin-releasing hormone, and finally leads to a decrease in thyroid stimulating hormone, which ultimately causes a decrease in thyroid hormone, thus causing hypothyroidism.

4. Hypopituitarism

Under the influence of some factors such as postpartum pituitary necrosis and atrophy, surgery, tumor compression, infection, intracranial vascular disease, etc., the anterior pituitary function declines, resulting in a decrease in the secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone and thyroid hormone, causing hypothyroidism, which is also one of the causes of hypothyroidism.

The above is a detailed introduction to the four major aspects of the causes of hypothyroidism. The majority of patients now have a clearer understanding of hypothyroidism. Understanding the causes of the disease is helpful for us to take preventive measures. For hypothyroidism, we must pay attention to our living habits and stay away from the disease.
