Understanding Thyroid Disorders in the Indian Context
India sees high rates of autoimmune thyroid disease and iodine-imbalance goitre. At Ajuda Hospitals, we apply an Indian Thyroid Society–aligned TSH-first reflex algorithm and ultrasound-guided FNAC to get the diagnosis right the first time. Protocols are adapted for Hyderabad’s diet and postpartum patterns.
When to Consult Our Thyroid Specialists
⚠️ Seek urgent care for:
- ✓ Severe palpitations, chest pain, or breathlessness
- ✓ Sudden neck swelling, painful thyroid, or high fever
- ✓ Postpartum confusion or extreme fatigue with very abnormal TSH
- ✓ Signs of myxoedema crisis or thyroid storm
Book a routine visit for persistent fatigue, hair fall, weight change, menstrual irregularity, or a visible neck lump.
Our Diagnostic Approach
TSH-First Strategy
Abnormal TSH triggers free T4/T3 automatically for accurate classification.
Ultrasound With TI-RADS
Characterises nodules and thyroiditis; determines need for FNAC.
Image-Guided FNAC
Bethesda reporting standardises risk and next steps.
Aetiology Tests
Autoantibodies and, when needed, radioiodine uptake scans differentiate Graves from thyroiditis and guide therapy.
Treatment Pathways
From lifestyle and micronutrients to levothyroxine titration, antithyroid drugs, radioiodine, and surgery, we individualise plans. Pregnancy and postpartum care follow trimester targets and lactation safety.
What to Expect: Your Care Journey
First visit covers history, examination, TSH reflex and ultrasound. Follow-up in 1 week for reports and plan. Titration visits every 6–8 weeks until stable, then 6–12 monthly. Coordinators assist with cashless approvals and WhatsApp follow-ups.
Technology & Innovation
We use high-frequency ultrasound, guided FNAC, TI-RADS/Bethesda frameworks, and EMR-linked lab panels for quick, consistent decisions.
Preventing Complications
Timely therapy reduces arrhythmias, infertility risk, pregnancy complications, and compressive symptoms from goitre.
