Behavioral Issues with Thyroiditis

چکیده
Behavioral and psychological changes have been associated with thyroid dysfunction in humans for several hundred years. About two-thirds of human patients with attention deficithyperactivity disorder were found to be hypothyroid in a recent study, and supplementing them with thyroxine was largely curative. In animals, hyperthyroid cats tend to be more irritable and show increased vocalization, whereas hypothyroid dogs -especially those younger dogs with autoimmune thyroiditis -can display a wide variety of aberrant behaviors.
