I think it is internal hormonal gland which responsible for the secretion of Thyroxine. some time we can see that thyroxine normally secreted from our thyroid gland. But due to abnormal function of thyroid some times we can see different types of abnormalities. Some time we can see that this hormone secret in a large quantity or in a small quantity, that time some abnormalities are found in our body that is called Thyroid disease. I think this disease are not curable. Every thyroid patients have to take medicine regularly through whole life. . My father is also suffering from thyroid and the attracted area is eyes. I saw many thyroid patients who became fatty due to excessive secretion of thyroxine.
So I think that if we fell any disorder in our body regarding hormone we should immediately go hospitals or any doctors chamber for check up.

hi,it may useful..
Not to be confused with the parathyroid glands In vertebrate anatomy, the thyroid gland or simply, the thyroid ('?a?r??d ...|pron), is one of the largest endocrine glands in the body. The thyroid gland is found in the neck, inferior to (below) the thyroid cartilage (which forms the laryngeal prominence, or 'Adam's Apple') and at approximately the same level as the cricoid cartilage. The thyroid gland controls how quickly the body uses energy, makes proteins, and controls how sensitive the body should be to other hormones. It participates in these processes by producing thyroid hormones, the principal ones being triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). These hormones regulate the rate of metabolism and affect the growth and rate of function of many other systems in the body. T3 and T4 are synthesized from both iodine and tyrosine. The thyroid also produces calcitonin, which plays a role in calcium homeostasis. Hormonal output from the thyroid is regulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) produced by the anterior pituitary, which itself is regulated by ...

Hi there,
Thyroid disease is completely curable, and I'm living proof. I had Grave's Disease (severe hyperthyroid among other things - it also affects the eyes). I have *never* taken medication for the Grave's, either. I am so excited that my thyroid levels are back to normal!! I went the natural route... I took a concoction of colloidal minerals on a daily basis (I still take them), and I'm doing great. Tell your father to go see a good naturopath or homeopath. Also, he needs to get blood tests every 3 months to check up on his condition, but if he's being monitored by his family doctor, what does he have to lose? Don't tell him to quit his medication - the naturopath or homeopath will help wean him off.
If you're suffering from thyroid problems, you do NOT need to get a thyroidectomy or radioactive iodine pill - that's what the pharmaceutical companies want you to think!!! Minerals - simple MINERALS - cured my problem, because the root of my issue was a mineral deficiency. For other people, it could be a different cause. But find the CAUSE, don't just treat the symptom!!!
