Thyroid diseases generally aren't preventable. This is because most cases of thyroid disease are linked to genetics and/or caused by autoimmune conditions.

Thyroid disease is an umbrella term for conditions that affect how your thyroid functions.

Physicians use thyroid tests to check how well your thyroid is working and to find the cause of problems such as hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.

The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped endocrine gland located in the lower front of the neck.

The type of treatment depends on the type of heart disease and how much damage has happened to the heart.

The term "heart disease" refers to several types of heart conditions.

Your risk depends on many factors, some of which are changeable and others that are not.

There are many different types of heart disease. Some you may be born with, called congenital heart disease. Other types develop during your lifetime.

If you choose to drink alcohol responsibly, limit your intake for optimal heart health.

Some warning signs of heart disease include chest pain, shortness of breath and heart palpitations.
