A Comprehensive Review on Thyroid Management And Therapeutic Potential of Medicinal Plants

Abstract

Thyroid diseases are widespread endocrine disorders that affect a significant portion of the global population. The pathology associated with specific types or stages of thyroid disease is complex and intricately linked to various biological functions. While the mortality rate associated with thyroid dysfunction is relatively low, it can lead to metabolic and immunological disorders that result in considerable discomfort for affected individuals. Currently, numerous pharmaceutical options are available for managing thyroid disease; however, issues such as drug toxicity and prolonged treatment durations highlight the urgent need for more effective alternatives.

Thyroid disorders are among the most prevalent endocrine conditions worldwide, affecting individuals across all age groups and contributing significantly to morbidity and reduced quality of life. Effective thyroid management requires accurate diagnosis, appropriate therapeutic interventions, and long-term monitoring to prevent complications and optimize patient outcomes.
