Respected mortal, I can understand your concern. You haven't mentioned what she has exactly. You clearly need to know some basics. Thyroid is a gland which is normally present in all humans. But many humans have thyroid imbalances like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. In them either there is a deficiency or a high level of thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormones need to be under a certain level. Too much or too less is a problem. For that there are medications available to take which she is already taking. That's the only management. There is no cure. It's just managed this way. That was my expert opinion. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
