If the thyroxine hormone is too much, the body becomes thin, frequent sweating, itchy body, increased heart rate, frequent bowel movements, protruding eyes, and frequent anger.
During pregnancy, due to the decrease in the mother's production of thyroxine hormone, there may even be a decrease in the intellectual development of the child growing in the womb. The component called iodine is needed to produce thyroxine hormone. Iodine deficiency impairs the production of this hormone.
In addition, the lack of thyroxine in an older person can lead to an increase in cholesterol levels and in addition to a decrease in blood pressure.weight gain, feeling abnormally tired, loss of appetite, intolerance to cold in the environment, memory loss, mental illness.
