Thyroid disorders become more common with age. But although it's less likely that a young person will develop a problem with their thyroid there are many who are affected. We've produced some information to help you understand more about your thyroid and some suggestions and tips about how to manage the symptoms and feelings you may experience.
If you have any suggestions or feedback about the information in our resources, or if you'd like to share your own experiences of living with a thyroid disorder, we would love to hear from you. Please get in touch.
