Can you tell me the basics on how hyperactive thyroids occurs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too much hormone: Hyperthyroidism is a condition where the thyroid produces too much hormone more than what your body needs. It can happen in many conditions such as Grave's disease, thyroiditis, isolated nodule, or taking too much iodine or food that contain too much iodine.
