    The thyroid gland is located on the front part of the neck below the thyroid cartilage (Adam’s apple). This gland produces thyroid hormone which regulate body metabolism, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature & body energy.
    There is no any disease which affect the thyroid but the conditions are like hypothyroidism (low production of thyroid hormone), & another one is hyperthyroidism (excess production of thyroid hormone) affect the thyroid.
