Hello docs. i was wondering can thyroid cause hallucinations?
10 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: It is known that changes in thyroid hormone levels could lead to manic or psychotic states that would promote the development of hallucinations and hallucinatory experiences related to a deterioration in thought processes, mood and potentially the onset of delirium.
