Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland produces an excessive amount of thyroid hormone. The thyroid gland, a small butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of the neck, produces thyroid hormones that regulate how the body utilizes energy. Hyperthyroidism speeds up your body’s metabolism, which causes unexpected weight loss and a fast or irregular heartbeat. There are various ways to treat hyperthyroidism, and most people respond well once it is detected and treated.
