| Hashimoto’s disease — an autoimmune ill-
ness in which there is inflammation, and
then destruction and fibrosis of the thyroid
gland, ultimately resulting in hypothyroid-
ism. Autoantibodies against thyroglobulin
and receptors for thyroid stimulating hor-
mone cause the progressive destruction.
Hashimoto’s is the most common cause
of hypothyroidism in areas of the world
where there are inadequate levels of io-
dine. It affects people of all ages, but is
most common in older women and those
with a family history of autoimmune dis-
eases. Thyroid hormone replacement is
required
