Here, we explain what her thyroid condition means and hear from an OK! Writer who has the condition… What is Hashimoto’s disease It’s an autoimmune disorder affecting the thyroid gland - that butterfly-shaped gland at the bottom of your neck (below the Adam’s apple, if you’re a man).
Our thyroid gland pumps out hormones to help keep our bodily functions (like our metabolism) running smoothly. In Hashimoto’s disease, the immune-system attacks the thyroid’s hormone producing cells, causing hypothyroidism - basically a drop in hormones.
Anyone can develop it, but it’s most common among middle-aged women. Download the OK! App today Keep up-to-date with all the very latest celebrity, health, beauty, parenting and entertainment news with the OK!
