What is a Thyroid Problem?
Thyroid problems occur when the thyroid gland a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of the neck produces either too much or too little thyroid hormone. These hormones play a vital role in regulating metabolism, heart rate, body temperature, and energy levels.
Common thyroid conditions include:
- Hypothyroidism: Underactive thyroid causingfatigue, weight gain, and cold intolerance
- Hyperthyroidism: Overactive thyroid leading to weight loss, anxiety, and palpitations
- Goiter: Enlargement of the thyroid gland
- Thyroid nodules: Abnormal growths that may require evaluation or removal
When thyroid disorders cannot be controlled with medication alone or when structural abnormalities pose health risks, surgical treatment is often recommended.
What Treatment did we provide to Krupa at Medicover?

Following the successful surgery, Krupa received personalised post-operative care, including monitoring, medication guidance, and follow-up support. She recovered well and continues to manage her health effectively under medical supervision.
