Induced Thyrotoxicosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Induced thyrotoxicosis describes an excess of thyroid hormone in the body that is triggered by a cause external to the gland, rather than arising from a disorder of the thyroid itself.
Where it comes from: It is related to thyroid hormone entering the body from a source outside the gland, which keeps its action elevated.
Symptoms that are usually described: A faster heart rate, anxiety, sweating, tremor or weight loss, typical of an excessively active thyroid.
Which specialist evaluates it? It is up to the endocrinologist to identify the origin of the excess and guide the workup. When persistent signs of elevated thyroid activity appear, it is prudent to examine them together with this professional to pinpoint the cause.
