Homeopathy Treatment For Goitre

Goitre is an abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland, located in the front of the neck. It may occur due to iodine deficiency, hormonal imbalance, autoimmune conditions, or thyroid dysfunction (hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism). While some goitres are painless, others may cause swelling, discomfort, or difficulty swallowing. At Dr Care Homeopathy, our experienced doctors provide safe, effective, and root-cause-based homeopathic treatment to reduce thyroid swelling, balance hormones, and improve thyroid function naturally  without surgery or lifelong dependency on medicines.

What is Goitre?

Goitre refers to the swelling of the thyroid gland, which may appear as a visible lump in the neck.
 It can occur even when thyroid hormone levels are normal, but may also be associated with hypo- or hyperthyroidism.

Goitre can affect:

• Neck appearance
• Breathing (in large swellings)
• Swallowing
• Voice quality
  
  

Goitre is more common in women and individuals with a family history of thyroid issues.

Types of Goitre

1. Simple (Diffuse) Goitre

• Uniform swelling of the thyroid gland
• Usually due to iodine deficiency
• No nodules present
  
  

2. Nodular Goitre

• One or more nodules develop inside the thyroid
• May be single-nodular or multi-nodular
• Can affect thyroid function
  
  

3. Toxic Goitre

• Thyroid gland produces excess hormones
• Symptoms include palpitations, weight loss, irritability
  
  

4. Non-Toxic (Euthyroid) Goitre

• Thyroid function is normal
• Swelling mainly due to structural changes
  
  

5. Autoimmune Goitre

• Seen in Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis or Graves’ Disease
• Immune system attacks the thyroid gland
  
  

Each type needs a unique treatment approach, which homeopathy provides safely.
