Thyroxine (T4) and Triiodothyronine (T3): These hormones influence metabolism, growth, and development.

Calcitonin: Helps regulate calcium levels by lowering blood calcium when it is too high.

Hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, goiter, and thyroid cancer.

Medication: Levothyroxine for hypothyroidism, antithyroid medications for hyperthyroidism, or radioactive iodine treatment.

Lifestyle Changes: Diet and exercise modifications.
