Hyperthyroidism is a condition of overactivity of the thyroid gland resulting in the production of more thyroid hormones T4 and/or T3 than normal, increasing the concentration of hormones circulating in the blood, thereby causing tissue and metabolic damage. Hyperthyroidism is common in women (ratio 8 women: 1 man) between the ages of 20 and 50, including pregnant women. So should pregnant women with hyperthyroidism give birth naturally or by cesarean section?

Hyperthyroidism is a term used to describe a condition in which the thyroid gland increases the synthesis and release of thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Graves' disease is the most typical and common form of hyperthyroidism.
