A member asked:

27 yr. old, female. no thyroid enlargement or any nodules upon palpation. what could this mean? can someone have hyperthyroidism without any nodule?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thyroid: That would mean that your exam is normal. You can have hyperthyroidism without nodules. Thyroid blood tests are what you need if you are concerned
