In clinical practice, most patients with hyperthyroidism take a medication control plan after the diagnosis of the disease. Indeed, the thyroid function indicators can be maintained within the normal range during the medication period. However, once the drug is discontinued, the thyroid function is abnormal again, which also causes many patients to lose confidence in the treatment of hyperthyroidism in this repeated repetition.
Can hyperthyroidism really be cured? ? ?
In fact, there are many reasons why many patients with hyperthyroidism will relapse after treatment However, in many cases, recurrence can be avoided. Patients need to actively cooperate with professional and systematic treatment after clarifying their condition, and stay away from the causes that can lead to recurrence in life, so as to achieve long-term health.
Three There are several reasons for the recurrence of hyperthyroidism
1. The recurrence of hyperthyroidism caused by disease factors< /span>
The more obvious the goiter is, the higher the recurrence rate of hyperthyroidism is; After treatment, the thyroid becomes more swollen and more prone to recurrence.
The titer of thyrotropin receptor antibody is very high, and the antibody titer does not decrease after treatment, and the recurrence rate of hyperthyroidism is extremely high . Patients with a genetic family history of hyperthyroidism generally have obvious goiter and a higher recurrence rate.
2 , Recurrence of hyperthyroidism caused by lifestyle factors
Iodine is the raw material for synthesizing thyroid hormones Foods and medicines that contain more iodine are prone to relapse. Long-term living in the ionizing radiation area (such as near high-power transformers, etc.) is easy to induce autoimmune reactions.
Emotional problems and mental stimulation problems, hyperthyroidism is a psychosomatic disease, if there is a particularly strong mental stimulation, you encounter some major events , or long-term chronic psychological pressure, etc., chronic stimulation will cause abnormal thyroid function, which may become the incentive for the recurrence of hyperthyroidism.
Long-term smoking worsens Tissue hypoxia leads to immune regulation disorders, increases the risk of hyperthyroidism recurrence, and is also an important cause of exophthalmos.
3 The recurrence of hyperthyroidism caused by the factors of treatment plan
The choice of treatment method is also one of the reasons for the recurrence of hyperthyroidism. The major factor is that many patients have insufficient awareness and attention to the disease of hyperthyroidism, thinking that it can be cured by any treatment, and some patients stop the drug on their own initiative after the symptoms have improved slightly. Causes of hyperthyroidism recurrence.
Some patients also know that drugs can treat hyperthyroidism, but they do not know that drugs for hyperthyroidism will damage liver function. problem appear. Other patients learned that iodine 131 can treat hyperthyroidism, which not only has radiation but also results in hypothyroidism. Surgical treatment is the same as iodine treatment, and if it is cut more, it is hypothyroidism.
Whether it’s “Jianghu advertisements”, or folk remedies, local remedies, many patients who are eager to treat diseases usually blindly believe that they can’t see a doctor. Figures are cheap, because these treatments have not undergone rigorous scientific testing and classification, and there is a lot of blindness in the treatment of hyperthyroidism.
How Avoid hyperthyroidism recurrence?
Hyperthyroidism treatment plan is important span>
When it comes to the treatment of hyperthyroidism, many people think of traditional conventional treatments, such as simple drug treatment, iodine-131 radiation therapy, and surgery, but From the perspective of clinical treatment effects, only a small number of patients can achieve ideal recovery through these treatment methods, and most patients face long treatment cycles, severe side effects, and life-long hypothyroidism.
In order to allow patients with hyperthyroidism to obtain satisfactory recovery, Zhengzhou Zhongke Thyroid Hospital introduced and carried out< span>“Hyperthyroidism ablation therapy”, has demonstrated its feasibility and effectiveness in the treatment of hyperthyroidism through years of clinical practice data, and has gradually become an important technology for the treatment of hyperthyroidism today.
Microwave ablation in the treatment of hyperthyroidism will firstly not damage liver function, and secondly will not cause lifelong hypothyroidism. The ablation needle can solve our “big” hyperthyroidism trouble, and microwave ablation technology has become a new choice for more thyroid patients.
The use of “needle” instead of “knife” to treat thyroid diseases is the advancement of science and technology, and it is also a blessing for patients. At present, thyroid heat (microwave) ablation technology has become the dominant minimally invasive surgery project of Zhengzhou Zhongke Thyroid Hospital. Effective in the treatment of thyroid disease.
