more
Hashimoto's thyroiditis or chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis is an autoimmune disease where the body's own antibodies attack the cells of the thyroid.
This disorder is believed to be the most common cause of primary hypothyroidism in North America. It is more prevalent in women than in men (8:1), and its incidence increases with age.
In European countries an atrophic form of autoimmune thyroiditis (Ord's thyroiditis) is more common than Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
