Uyafuna ukuhlolwa kwe-thyroid yakho? Ake sifunde ngokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid ngendlela elula!

Ingabe ngezinye izikhathi uzizwa ukhathele, noma wehlisa noma ukhuluphala ngaphandle kwesizathu? Ungase ucabange ukuthi lokhu kumane kuyinto ehlukile. Kodwa-ke, lezi zimpawu zingabangelwa izinguquko ezithile endlaleni ye-thyroid, indlala encane efana novemvane emzimbeni wethu. Ngakho-ke, namuhla sizoxoxa ngokuthi ziyini lezi zivivinyo ze-thyroid, ukuthi zenziwa kanjani, nokuthi zenziwe nini. Akukho okufanele ukwesabe, lezi izivivinyo ezilula kakhulu.

Kuyini Ukuhlolwa Kwe-Thyroid?

Kalula nje, ukuhlolwa kwe-thyroid kuwuchungechunge lwezivivinyo ezihlola ukuthi i-thyroid gland yakho isebenza kahle yini. Manje ungase uzibuze ukuthi iyini i-thyroid gland. Iyi-gland encane, efana novemvane etholakala entanyeni yakho, ngaphansi nje kwe-collarbone, ngaphezu nje kwe-sternum/breastbone. Isebenza njengesikhungo sokulawula esiyinhloko sendlela umzimba wethu osebenzisa ngayo amandla. Kufana nesikhungo somyalo!

Uma uzizwa ukhathele, ukhathele, noma umane nje ungaphumuli, ucasukile, noma unezinguquko zesisindo ezingachazeki (ukwanda noma ukwehla), udokotela wakho angase akuncome ukuhlolwa kwe-thyroid. Lokhu kuhlolwa kungasiza ekuxilongeni izimo eziningana ezihlobene ne-thyroid. Isibonelo:

• Ukwehla kokusebenza kwe-thyroid gland, okungukuthi, i-hypothyroidism .
• Umsebenzi owandisiwe wendlala yegilo, okungukuthi, i-hyperthyroidism .
• Ukuvuvukala kwendlala yegilo, okungukuthi , i-thyroiditis .
• Isifo samathuna .
• Isifo sikaHashimoto .

Lokhu kubizwa nangokuthi ukuhlolwa kokusebenza kwe-thyroid.

Yiziphi izinhlobo zokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid ezikhona?

Kunezinhlobo ezimbili eziyinhloko zokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid. Ake sibheke ukuthi ziyini.

1. Ukuhlolwa kwegazi le-thyroid: Lokhu kulinganisa ama-hormone nama-antibodies egazini lakho. Lokhu kungasiza ekunqumeni ukuthi unezimo ezifana ne-hypothyroidism noma i-hyperthyroidism. Ukuhlolwa kwe-TSH, T3, T4, kanye nama-antibody e-thyroid kungaphansi kwalesi sigaba.

2. Ukuhlolwa kwesithombe se-thyroid: Lokhu kuhlolwa kungasiza udokotela wakho ukuthi abone ukuthi unezigaxa (amaqhubu) entanyeni yakho nokuthi ngabe zinomdlavuza (eziyingozi) noma ezingenobungozi (ezingenobungozi). Lokhu kuhlolwa kufaka phakathi ukuhlolwa okufana nokumuncwa kwe-thyroid kanye nokuskena. Kwezinye zalezi zivivinyo, unikezwa inani elincane loketshezi olukhethekile (izinto ezingafani) ukuze uphuze noma ujove.

Lokhu kuhlolwa kwe-thyroid yegazi kusebenza kanjani?

Ukuhlolwa kwegazi le-thyroid kulinganisa amazinga ama-hormone athile nama-antibodies egazini lakho. Uma la ma-hormone noma ama-antibodies ephansi kakhulu noma ephezulu kakhulu, kusho ukuthi ungase ube nesifo se-thyroid. Kulungile, manje ake sibheke ukuthi lokhu kuhlolwa kwegazi okuyinhloko kubheka ini:

• Ukuhlolwa kwe-TSH: Lokhu kulinganisa i-hormone yakho evuselela i-thyroid (TSH). Lokhu kuvame ukuba ukuhlolwa kokuqala odokotela abakuncomayo. Le hormone, i-TSH, ikhiqizwa yi-pituitary gland ebuchosheni bakho. Ukusuka lapho, le hormone ye-TSH iya e-thyroid gland futhi iyivuselele ukuthi yenze ama-hormone e-thyroid (T3 kanye ne-T4).
• Ukuhlolwa kwe-T3 (noma i-T3 yamahhala): Lokhu kulinganisa inani le-hormone ebizwa ngokuthi i-triiodothyronine (T3) egazini lakho. Lena ingenye yama-hormone amabili ayinhloko enziwa yi-thyroid gland.
• Ukuhlolwa kwe-T4 (noma i-T4 yamahhala): Lokhu kulinganisa inani le-hormone ebizwa ngokuthi i-thyroxine (T4) egazini lakho. Lena enye i-hormone eyinhloko eyenziwe yi-thyroid gland.
• Ukuhlolwa kwama-antibody e-thyroid: Lokhu kuhlolwa kungatshela udokotela wakho ukuthi une-antibodies ye-thyroid egazini lakho. Uma unala ma-antibodies, kungasho ukuthi unesifo sokuzivikela komzimba, njengesifo sikaGraves noma isifo sikaHashimoto.

Ingabe ngidinga ukulungiselela ngaphambi kokuhlolwa kwegazi?

Ngokuvamile, awudingi ukwenza noma yini ekhethekile ngaphambi kwalokhu kuhlolwa kwegazi. Ungadla futhi uphuze ngendlela evamile ngaphandle kokuthi udokotela wakho akutshele okuhlukile. Kodwa-ke, ngezinye izikhathi udinga ukutshela udokotela wakho nganoma yimiphi imithi oyiphuzayo, njengoba eminye imithi ingathinta imiphumela yalokhu kuhlolwa.

Kwenzekani ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa kwegazi?

Kulula kakhulu. Umhlengikazi noma udokotela uzothatha isampula encane yegazi emthanjeni osengalweni yakho. Bese bethumela lelo sampula legazi elabhorethri ukuze lihlolwe. Uma ilabhorethri isiqedile ukuhlola, imiphumela izothunyelwa kudokotela oku-ode ukuhlolwa.

Ngemva kokuhlolwa kwegazi?

Udokotela wakho uzokhuluma nawe ngale miphumela. Bangase futhi ba-ode ukuhlolwa okwengeziwe uma bedinga ulwazi olwengeziwe. Bazochaza nokuthi imiphumela yakho isho ukuthini nokuthi yini okufanele uyenze ngokulandelayo.

Ukuhlolwa kwe-thyroid imaging kusebenza kanjani?

Ukuhlolwa kwezithombe ze-thyroid kunganikeza udokotela wakho ulwazi olwengeziwe mayelana nosayizi, ukuma, kanye nokusebenza kwe-thyroid gland yakho. Odokotela bavame ukuncoma lokhu kuhlolwa kwezithombe ngemva kokuhlolwa kwegazi. Ake sibheke ukuthi kuyini.

• I-ultrasound ye-thyroid:Lokhu kusebenzisa amaza omsindo ukubheka ukuma, usayizi, kanye nendawo yendlala yegilo. Phakathi nalolu vivinyo, udokotela wakho uzobeka idivayisi ephathwayo esikhumbeni sentamo yakho bese eyihambisa. Le divayisi ithumela amaza omsindo emzimbeni wakho futhi ihlaziye amaza aphuma ku-thyroid yakho. Ivame ukusetshenziselwa ukuthola izigaxa (amaqhubu) entanyeni yakho.
• Ukuskena kwe-thyroid: Lokhu kusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bokuskena be-CT (Computed Tomography) ukubheka usayizi nendawo ye-thyroid gland. Ngokuvamile, udokotela usebenzisa into ekhethekile ebizwa ngokuthi izinto eziphikisanayo ukusiza ukubona noma yiziphi izindawo eziyinkinga ngokucacile. Le nto inciphisa inani le-X-ray edlula emzimbeni wakho, okuvumela izithombe ezicacile. Lokhu kuhilela ukufaka i-radioactive iodine emithanjeni yakho, noma ukukunikeza iphilisi lokugwinya ngaphambi kokuhlolwa. Ngezinye izikhathi ukuskena kungenziwa ngaphandle kwezinto eziphikisanayo, kodwa akuvamile.
• Ukuhlolwa kokungenisa i-thyroid: Lokhu kuhlola ukuthi i-thyroid gland yakho isebenza kahle kangakanani. Emahoreni amane kuya kwayisithupha ngaphambi kokuhlolwa, ugwinya inani elincane le-iodine enemisebe (kungaba njengoketshezi noma njengephilisi). Uma ufika ukuze uhlolwe, uzohlala esihlalweni bese udokotela ebeka idivayisi ebizwa ngokuthi i-gamma probe ngaphambili entanyeni yakho. (I-gamma probe iyithuluzi eliphathwa ngesandla elilinganisa ukuthi i-thyroid gland yakho ithatha i-iodine engakanani egazini.) Lokhu akubuhlungu futhi kuthatha imizuzu embalwa kuphela. Ngokuvamile uzohlolwa futhi ngemva kwamahora angu-24. Uma i-thyroid gland yakho ithatha i-iodine eningi kakhulu, ungase ube ne-hyperthyroidism noma isifo sikaGraves. Uma umunca i-iodine encane kakhulu, ungase ucabange ukuthi une-hypothyroidism noma isifo sikaHashimoto.

Ingabe ngidinga ukulungiselela kusenesikhathi ukuhlolwa kwezithombe?

Uma udokotela wakho ezosebenzisa izinto ezihlukanisayo, ungase ucelwe ukuthi uyeke ukudla noma ukuphuza amahora ambalwa ngaphambi kokuhlolwa. Noma, ungase ucelwe ukuthi ugweme ukudla okune-iodine eningi, njenge-kelp.

Okubalulekile: Imiyalelo oyinikwayo ingahluka kuye ngesimo sakho. Ngakho-ke, udokotela wakho uzokutshela ngqo ukuthi udinga ukwenza noma yimaphi amalungiselelo akhethekile. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukulandela leyo miyalelo.

Kwenzekani ngemva kokuhlolwa kwezithombe?

Udokotela we-X-ray uzothumela imiphumela yakho yezithombe kudokotela o-ode ukuhlolwa. Ngemva kokubukeza ama-scan, udokotela uzokhuluma nawe ngawo nokuthi yini okufanele uyenze ngokulandelayo.

Uma ukuskena kwakho kubonisa into efana neqhubu entanyeni yakho, udokotela wakho angase akucele ukuthi kwenziwe i-biopsy yenaliti., okungukuthi, ungase ucelwe ukuthi wenze i-'FNA (Fine Needle Aspiration)'. Lokhu kuzokusiza ukuthi wazi ngokuqinisekile ukuthi iqhubu linomdlavuza noma cha.

Kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuthola imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid?

Ngemva kokuba udokotela wakho ebukeze imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid yakho, uzokushayela ucingo ukuze akwazise noma akucele ukuthi ubuye ehhovisi. Lokhu ngokuvamile akuthathi izinsuku ezingaphezu kwezimbalwa. Kodwa-ke, lokhu kungahluka kancane kuye ngomthwalo womsebenzi welabhorethri.

Yikuphi ukuhlolwa kwegazi okubonisa ukusebenza kwe-thyroid?

Odokotela basebenzisa ukuhlolwa kwegazi okuningana ukuhlola ukusebenza kwe-thyroid. Ukuhlolwa okubili okuvame kakhulu yi-TSH (i-thyroid-stimulating hormone) kanye ne-T4 noma amazinga e-T4 (thyroxine) amahhala .

Ngezinye izikhathi odokotela batusa futhi ukuhlolwa kwegazi le-thyroid okuphelele.

Yini ekhona ku-Full Thyroid Panel?

Iphaneli yokuhlola igazi le-thyroid ephelele ilinganisa amazinga ama-hormone nama-antibodies alandelayo egazini lakho:

• I-TSH (i-hormone evuselela i-thyroid)
• I-T3 noma i-T3 yamahhala (i-triiodothyronine)
• I-T4 noma i-T4 yamahhala (i-thyroxine)
• Ama-antibodies e-thyroid peroxidase (TPO), abizwa nangokuthi ama-antibodies e-microsomal.
• I-TG (i-thyroglobulin)
• Ama-antibodies e-thyroglobulin (TGAb)
• I-TSI (i-immunoglobulin evuselela i-thyroid)

Ukuthi konke lokhu kuyacatshangelwa ngesikhathi esisodwa noma cha kuncike ezimpawini zakho kanye nesinqumo sikadokotela wakho.

Kwenzekani uma izinga lami le-TSH liphezulu?

Uma izinga lakho le-TSH liphezulu, kungasho ukuthi une -hypothyroidism . Lokhu kusho ukuthi indlala yakho ye-thyroid ayikhiqizi ama-hormone e-thyroid anele.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, uma izinga lakho le-TSH liphansi, kungabonisa i-hyperthyroidism . Lokhu kwenzeka lapho i-thyroid gland yakho ikhiqiza ama-hormone e-thyroid amaningi kakhulu.

Khumbula: Udokotela wakho uzokuchazela ukuthi le miphumela isho ukuthini nokuthi iyithinta kanjani impilo yakho. Ungasheshi ufinyelele eziphethweni ngokusekelwe kulokho okufundayo ku-inthanethi.

Yiziphi izinto ezingathinta imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid?

Yebo, kunezinto ezithile ezingathinta imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid yakho, ngakho-ke kuhle ukuqaphela nalezi:

• Imithi ethile kanye nezithasiselo: Eminye imithi oyithathayo (isib. i-biotin) ingathinta imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwe-thyroid. Ngakho-ke tshela udokotela wakho ngayo yonke imithi namavithamini owathathayo.
• Isikhathi somuthi we-thyroid: Uma usuvele uthatha umuthi we-thyroid oqukethe i-T3, igebe phakathi kokuthi ugcine nini ukuthatha umuthi nokuthi unikele nini ngegazi lingathinta imiphumela.
• Ukuthi kufanele yini uhlolwe noma cha: Lokhu kuthinta kuphela ukuskena kwe-thyroid. Ngokuvamile akuthinti ukuhlolwa kwegazi.
• Ukucindezeleka: Ukucindezeleka ngokweqile, noma imiphumela yesinye isimo sezokwelapha, ngezinye izikhathi kungaba nomthelela omncane emiphumeleni.

Ingabe ngidinga ukuzila ukudla ukuze ngihlolwe i-thyroid?

Lokhu kuncike nokuthi hlobo luni lokuhlolwa olutholayo. Odokotela abaningi abakukhuthazi ukuzila ukudla ngaphambi kokuhlolwa kwegazi le-thyroid. Kodwa-ke, uma kusetshenziswa izinto zokulinganisa i-thyroid, ikakhulukazi uma kusetshenziswa izinto ezibonisa umehluko, ungase ucelwe ukuthi uyeke ukudla nokuphuza amahora ambalwa ngaphambi kokuhlolwa.

Udokotela wakho uzokwazisa kusenesikhathi ukuthi udinga ukuzila ukudla noma wenze amanye amalungiselelo.
