INTRODUCTION
Endocrine system - second key regulator of organ
systems
Thyroid gland – one of the largest endocrine gland
metabolism

Well functioning TG - pivotal for a healthy body & to
conceive a healthy child.4

Thyroid means “oblong
sheild.”
Brownish-red, butterfly
shaped structure - front of
the neck .
just inferior to larynx
from C5 to T1

Weight 25 gm./1 ounce
Each lobe - 5 x 3 x 2cm
Isthmus – 1.25cm x 1.25 cm x 1.25 cm.
Slightly heavier in females enlarging during
menstruation and pregnancy.
Highly vascular receiving 80-120ml of
blood\min.

Microscopic anatomy
includes thyroid follicles -spherical.
0.02 to 0.9mm in diameter.
with a central colloid core surrounded by a
simple epithelium and basal lamina.
Colloid -thyroglobulin.
Parafollicular cells /“C”cells.

THYROID HORMONES
Thyroid gland – large storage capacity , store
thyroid hormone for 2 to 3 months.
Thyroid hormone include
1. 93% Thyroxine (t4) - 10-25pmol/ltr (normal)
2. 7 % Triiodothyronine(t3) - 1.1-2.3nmol/ltr
3. Thyrocalcitonin – parafollicular cells
Normal value - TSH - 0.45 -5.5mmol/ltr
T3 is about 4 times as potent as T4.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS
Vataja galaganda as per symptoms –Hyper
thyroidism
Kaphaja galaganda as per symptoms –
Hypothyroidism
In other sense hyperTh as Apatarpanotha
vyadhi/ and hypoth as santharpanotha vyadhi
Hence management can be adopted according
to the condition
