At BMI we join the awareness campaigns on thyroid disease and its repercussions on health.
The thyroid is a gland that is located in the upper part of the trachea and secretes hormones that influence metabolism and growth. Its function is to produce and release two types of hormones: thyroxine and triyodethyronine, which are essential to regulate the functions of our body.
Thyroid diseases are five to eight times more common in women than in men, and the chance of dysfunction increases with age, especially after pregnancy and menopause. Therefore, it is advisable to check your hormonal levels from the age of 40.
BMI and its plans provide you with coverage for this condition. Contact us and receive more information.
