How much time does the hyperthyroid stage of thyroiditis last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thyroiditis symptoms: In classic subacute thyroiditis, the neck is tender, thyroid is inflammed, and the hyperthyroid phase is several weeks to 1 month. People often don't notice it. But other forms of thyroiditis (painless, hashimoto's) can last longer. See your endocrinologist. If the hyperthyroid phase is long, you may have "hashitoxicosis", which is an overlap with graves disease.
