📄 Abstract
Hyperthyroidism, characterized by an overactive thyroid gland and excessive secretion of T3 and T4 hormones, is a growing global health concern, particularly in developing nations. While Ayurvedic classics do not mention the thyroid gland by name, the clinical presentation of hyperthyroidism closely mirrors the conditions of Bhasmaka Roga. These conditions are fundamentally related to an exaggerated digestive fire (Agni) and metabolic state due to influence of Pitta and Vata Dosha This article explores the Ayurvedic perspective on the clinical features (Lakshanas) of hyperthyroidism through the lens of Bhasmaka Roga by giving an analytical similarities between them with due considerations to functions of Pitta Dosha and thyroid hormones and consequences of their hyperactivity in the body. It further outlines comprehensive management strategies, including Nidana Parivarjana (avoidance of causative factors), Shamsamana (palliative therapy), dietary interventions (Pathya Ahara), and Yogic practices to restore metabolic balance.
