Can Thyroid Issues Cause Difficulty In Sleeping?
Question: Yes, thank you. I haven't been sleeping. I feel very rushed internally which causes me to stay awake. I thought it might be my thyroid.
Brief Answer:
Yes, it may be overactive thyroid.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Thank you for asking on HCM!
Yes, you are right.
The symptoms you described are suggestive for hyperthyroidism or over active thyroid.
To confirm it you need to check;
-TSH, Ft4 and Ft3 hormones.
The treatment dose will depend on hormonal level.
