Causes And Symptoms Of Hyperthyroidism In Men

Shortness Of Breath

Everyone already knows it. Hyperthyroidism makes a man's metabolism increase! But this triggers many symptoms, and the next one in the lineup? Shortness of breath. The lungs don't react well to a faster metabolism because of hyperthyroidism. The lungs will work harder, but their function will be worse. The respiratory muscles will get weaker. Men can also develop a goiter in their thyroid, which means swelling in the neck!

All of these things put pressure on a man's breathing, and because of that, they'll run out of breath faster. Men, you may be short of breath when doing even the simplest things. You may not even be able to walk up some stairs without shortness of breath!
