What are the Symptoms of a Hyperactive Thyroid?
The condition of having a hyperactive thyroid is called hyperthyroidism. A hyperactive thyroid can also be called an overactive thyroid. A thyroid having this condition produces excessive amounts of the hormone thyroxine. Many of the symptoms of a hyperactive thyroid are associated with the body’s metabolism. These symptoms can be similar to symptoms of different health problems, which can make it difficult to diagnose a hyperactive thyroid. Once diagnosed, however, most people respond well to treatment.
