What is the cause of Hashimoto's thyroiditis

If we talk about Hashimoto's thyroiditis, you may not be very familiar with it, but if we talk about chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, you may be more familiar with it. In fact, these two conditions belong to the same disease. Diseases like this often occur in middle-aged and elderly people, and the incidence rate is higher in women. What causes Hashimoto's thyroiditis?

Since Hashimoto's thyroiditis develops slowly and is relatively hidden, many patients do not feel it. It will not be detected until the late stage. What everyone doesn't know about this disease is what causes it? Let's ask experts to tell us what are the causes of Hashimoto's thyroiditis?

1. Being affected by external evil: In daily life, there are many bacteria and viruses that will invade the human body, damage organs such as the liver and spleen, and cause poor circulation of qi and blood, which will lead to people becoming ill. Over time, the spleen will become weak and the kidneys will be damaged, which will eventually lead to Hashimoto's thyroiditis, damaging people's physical and mental health and affecting their normal life and work.

2. Emotional factors : The cause of Hashimoto's thyroiditis is also closely related to the patient's emotions. If the patient is worried or angry for a long time, it can easily affect the liver, spleen, etc. of the human body, and cause obstruction of blood flow. It may also form a tumor and lead to the occurrence of Hashimoto's thyroiditis, affecting the patient's physical and mental health.

3. Physical factors: People with weak bodies or women after childbirth are easily injured, leading to Hashimoto's thyroiditis, so the disease mostly occurs in young and middle-aged women.

Now that we understand the causes of Hashimoto's thyroiditis, in order to reduce the occurrence of the disease, we can take preventive measures through the above causes. If you unfortunately get this disease, you must seek timely treatment to avoid serious harm. At the same time, patients are reminded that only by going to a regular, professional hospital for the treatment of this disease can good treatment results be achieved.
