My friend is suffering from thyroid . Earlier she was thin but suddenly she started growing fat after diagnosing she came to know that she is suffering from thyroid Is there any cure for this ?

I'm also suffering from thyroid and gained a lot of weight, has she started treatment? Exercise to the neck will reduce 50% of thyroid disease by increasing the circulation to the thyroid gland by squeezing it during exercises. The exercise is nothing but Flexion and Extension of the neck backward, downward, and side ways, like this if you at least thice a day and when ever you are free, the thyroid disease will surely subside.

Yes she had started treatment but she doesn't do neck exercise .I will inform her about it .Thank you.

As far as I know. once a person gets thyroid, there is no way to cure it completely or get rid of it. You have to be under medication life long to keep it under control.

Thyroid is a body organ. I think you're pertaining to the disease hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. If your friend is getting fat then I guess she's suffering from hypothyroidism. She needs to take medicine to for that to prevent complications.

Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism you should visit an good Endocrinologist. He would provide you options on the treatment which range from surgery to life long sustaining drugs. Sometimes depending on development of diseases its possible to cure (or provide relief for long time) these conditions hence yearly health checkups are essential, especially after 30-32.

Some people have thyroid problems because there is physically something wrong with their thyroid, other people have a perfectly healthy thyroid but their pituitary gland is having difficulty communicating with it. In most all cases of thyroid trouble, a daily dose of thyroxine will help.

Your friend needs to see a endocrinologist who specializes in thyroid. Regular doctors are not usually very helpful when it comes to managing thyroid problems.

Apparently you need to take medication for thyroid problem for the whole of your life, but its generally just one tablet I think in the morning and thats it!

The only cures I heard about where to do with yoga, there are certain yoga exercises which can be done...I dont know whether the thyroid problem gets cured permanently or helps it, but I suppose its worth a try. But do make sure you learn your yoga techniques from a professional so that you do them in the correct way.
