How does a thyroid work? The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck, producing hormones that control the body’s metabolism, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and weight. The thyroid is in charge of energy! Whether you’re a couch potato or a marathon runner, this gland serves as the body’s thermostat, deciding how much energy you should burn and when. Located at your throat, this gland is metabolism central, baby.
A thyroidectomy is the surgical removal of the thyroid, which is used to treat thyroid diseases and disorders such as hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, a goiter (the irregular enlargement of the thyroid gland), or thyroid cancer. Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves disease can also throw a wrench into your lil' thyroid's life. Your thyroid can be replaced with a little pill called Synthroid. Sorry, thyroid!
