The thyroid is a tiny butterfly-structured gland located in the neck. It produces hormones that govern the body's energy consumption pathway. Therefore, impairment of the thyroid gland may cause disastrous medical conditions in patients. Hypothyroidism occurs due to impaired or reduced thyroid activity.
